Red Brother Red Sister
Bruce Cockburn
Went to the museum, red brother
Saw your ancient bloom cut, pressed and dried
A sign said wasn't it clever what they used to do
But it never did say how they died
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Went to Regina, red sister
Heard a cab driver say what he'd seen
"There's a grand place to eat out on Number One
All white ladies if you know what I mean"
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Went to a pow wow, red brother
Felt the people's lovejoy flow around
It left me crying just thinking about it
How they used my saviour's name to keep you down
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
