All my friends call me Bear Claw

The Village Chieftain is my pa-pa

You can find me in my wigwam

I'll be beatin' on my tom-tom

Pull out the pipe and smoke you some

Drug me around by my headband

With just my arrow and my hickory bow

From a hundred yards don't you know

I do it all the time

They all gather 'round my teepee

Late at night tryin' to catch a peek at me

In nothin' but my buffalo briefs

I got 'em standin' in line

Cause I'm an Indian outlaw

Half Cherokee and Choctaw

My baby she's a Chippewa
