[Intro]
As long as the grass shall grow
As long as the grass shall grow
As long as the grass shall grow
[Verse 1]
Now the Seneca are an Indian tribe of the Iraquios Nation
Down on the New York/Pennsylvania line you'll find their reservation
After the US revolution Cornplanter was their chief, and he told the tribe they could trust these men, 'cause that was his true belief
So he went down to Independence Hall, and there a treaty signed that promised peace with the USA and the Indian rights combined
George Washington gave his signature, and the government gave its hand and said that for now and forevermore, this was Indian land
[Chorus]
As long (As long) as the moon (As the moon shall rise)
As long (As long) as the rivers (as the rivers) flow
As long (As long) as the sun (as the sun) will shine
As long (As long) as the grass (as the grass) shall grow
[Verse 2]
And on the Seneca reservation, there is much sadness now
Washington's treaty's been broken, and there ain't no hope no how
Across the Allegheny River they're throwing up a dam
It'll flood the Indian country and be a proud day for Uncle Sam
It has broke the ancient treaty with a politician's grin
And it'll drown the Indian graveyards; Cornplanter, can you swim?
And though the earth is mother to the Seneca, they're trampling sacred ground and change the good green earth to black muddy flats where honor hobbles down
As long as the grass shall grow
As long as the grass shall grow
As long as the grass shall grow
[Verse 1]
