Lyrics

Their numbers used to be, as far as I can see
The great herds of buffalo roamed where they pleased
They gave us our food and warmth from the cold
From every plains nation from the young to the old
I see the train coming, they’re shooting their guns
The buffalo down, their bodies rot in the sun
They do it to starve me, to break my soul
Now I'm here to tell you we have no buffalo

Free my people, free my homeland
Let them go, and let the buffalo roam
Free my people, free my homeland
Let them go, and let the buffalo roam

Where have all the buffalo gone
Where have all the buffalo gone
Where have all the buffalo gone
It’s killing me

We grab our bows, and grab our arrows
We’ve got to fight this train like there’s no tomorrow
There’s no way to stop it, running down the tracks
It’s shooting all the buffalo and never looks back
The train kills the buffalo to starve our tribe
I pray to the Creator, oh why oh why
The train kills the buffalo to starve our tribe
I pray to the Creator, don’t let them die

Free my people, free my homeland
Let them go, and let the buffalo roam
Free my people, free my homeland
Let them go, and let the buffalo roam

Where have all the buffalo gone
Where have all the buffalo gone
Where have all the buffalo gone
It’s killing me

Free my people, free my homeland
Let them go, and let the buffalo roam
Free my people, free my homeland
Let them go, let them go, let them go
Let the buffalo roam

Where have all the buffalo gone
Where have all the buffalo gone
Where have all the buffalo gone
It’s killing me

It’s killing me
It’s killing me
It’s killing me
It’s killing me
