Lyrics Johnny Horton – Cherokee Boogie
Text:
Well, a Cherokee chief as he dances along
Sings an Indian boogie to a white man’s song
Singin’, «Hey-ho-a-lina» («Hey-ho-a-lina»)
Singin’, «Hey-ho-a-lina» («Hey-ho-a-lina»)
Well, he dances over here and he dances over there
Now he’s dancing with a squal called standing bear
Singin’, «Hey-ho-a-lina» («Hey-ho-a-lina»)
Singin’, «Hey-ho-a-lina» («Hey-ho-a-lina»)
Singin’, «Hey-ho-a-lina», oh oh no it’s in our heads
Well, he dances on the hill and he dances on the rock
But he keeps on shaking that tomohawk
Singin’, «Hey-ho-a-lina» («Hey-ho-a-lina»)
Singin’, «Hey-ho-a-lina» («Hey-ho-a-lina»)
Singin’, «Hey-ho-a-lina», oh oh no it’s in our heads
Well, he sings a little soft and he sings a little loud
With his tom-tom beatin’ so big and proud
Singin’, «Hey-ho-a-lina» («Hey-ho-a-lina»)
Singin’, «Hey-ho-a-lina» («Hey-ho-a-lina»)
Singin’, «Hey-ho-a-lina», oh oh no it’s in our heads
Well, he dances over here and he dances over there
Now he’s dancing with a squal called standing bear
Singin’, «Hey-ho-a-lina» («Hey-ho-a-lina»)
Singin’, «Hey-ho-a-lina» («Hey-ho-a-lina»)
Singin’, «Hey-ho-a-lina», oh oh no it’s in our heads
Now, he’s a Cherokee chief as a you all might know
When he keeps on a singing nuven-yo
Singin’, «Hey-ho-a-lina» («Hey-ho-a-lina»)
Singin’, «Hey-ho-a-lina» («Hey-ho-a-lina»)
Singin’, «Hey-ho-a-lina», oh oh no it’s in our heads
