Bigfoot was an Indian chief of the Miniconjou band
A band of Miniconjou Sioux from South Dakota land
Bigfoot said to Custer, "Stay away from that Crazy Horse"
But Custer crossed into Sioux land and he never came back across
Then Bigfoot led his people to a place called Wounded Knee
And they found themselves surrounded by the 7th Cavalry
Bigfoot, Bigfoot, rise up from your bed
Miniconjou babies cry for their mothers lying dead
Bigfoot was down with a fever when he reached Wounded Knee
And his people all were prisoners of the 7th Cavalry
Two hundred women and children and another hundred men
Raised up a white flag of peace but peace did not begin
An accidental gunshot and Bigfoot was first to die
And over the noise of the rifles you could hear them babies cry
Bigfoot, Bigfoot, it's good that you can't see
Revenge is being wrought by Custer's 7th Cavalry
Smoke hung over the canyon on that cold December day
All was death and dying around where Bigfoot lay
But farther up the canyon some had tried to run and hide
But death showed no favorites, women, men and children died
One side called it a massacre, the other a victory
But the white flag is still waving today at Wounded Knee
Bigfoot, Bigfoot, your Miniconjou band
Is mourned and remembered here in South Dakota land
Bigfoot, Bigfoot, your Miniconjou band
Is mourned and remembered here in South Dakota land
