Jack
Malloy came up to me at a
party on the hill
Sad expression on his face
He said, though it grieves me so
I've been asked to throw you out
By the owner of this place
I said to him, I wonder how it got
You could turn on a friend
I think it's so sad
We may never be the same again
No, please don't tell me
I may never be it
Please don't tell me
We may never be the same again
And if you tell me I'm an
Indian
Then you're an
Indian too
That makes you an
Indian too
For several years I have been
On the edge of every sea
A stranger in my town
But even though they say hello
They would not be seen with me
I guess they'd never know
I wonder how come
I try to pretend
I think it's so sad
That we would never be the same again
No, please don't tell me
I'm living it
No, please don't tell me
We would never be the same again
And if you tell me I'm an
Indian
Then you're an
Indian too
You're an
Indian too, oh yeah
I used to spend my money on try
ing so hard to belong
A drink for you, my friend
Sometimes I just sit and call
Every number on the wall
Gets you in the air
Oh, I wonder how come
You can tell me away
I think it's so sad
We may never be the same again
Oh, please don't tell me
I'm an
Indian
Oh, please don't tell me
We may never be the same again
And if you tell me I'm an
Indian
You're an
Indian too
You're an
Indian too
Please don't tell me I'm an
Indian
No, please don't tell me
An d if you tell me I'm an
Indian
Please don't tell me
Please don't tell me
And if you tell me I'm an
Indian
