Minneha
Minne who?
Minnehaha
Aha
Look at me I'm what you call an Indian
That's something that I never was before
But one day I met Big Chief Chickama hooga
And right away he grabb'd me for his squaw
He wrapp'd me up in blankets
Put feathers in my head
Between the blankets and the feathers
I feel just like a bed
And now oi oi my people
How can I tell them how
Their little Rosie Rosenstein
Is a terrible Indian now
Chorus
O! Look at me
Just look at me
Hoo hoo I'm an Indian
Aha I'm an Indian
Down at the feet is the moccains for the shoes
Up in the back is a little fat papoose
Up in the head is the feathers from a goose
It's a goose it's a goose but I'm an Indian
I pal around with Hunting Bear
Laughing foot and Standing hair
Such people I never saw before
They do a war dance all around
While I take a skip too around the ground
Oi, oi, oi, oi, I'm a terrible squaw.
O! Look at me
Just look at me
hoo hoo I'm an Indian
Aha I'm an Indian
Me and the chief talk but we don't know what we speak
I keep him
He's a chief he's a chief but I'm an Indian
He's got an eye like a terrible hawk
And he thinks I'm
Just a wild man I've never saw before
But look at the chief what I can do
Aye aye aye I'm an indian squaw
