Willie Wright – Indian Reservation Lyrics

One, two, three

Stomping grounds remains in Missouri, Indian Reservation
Stomping grounds remains in Missouri, Indian Reservation
Stomping grounds, they remain in Missouri, Indian Reservation

Sitting here at home all alone
Thinking of the past I once knew
When I was young life seemed so easy
Sometimes I wish that I was back in school
Wish I was back in school

Have you ever been down to Missouri?
That's the place I remember, oh, so well
That's the place I spent half of my childhood
Think about it makes me feel so good
Makes me feel so good
Keeps me feeling good

How well I still can remember
When I was last there I was just a child
I used to run and play down by the railroad track
St. Louis, Missouri, she's calling me back
She's calling me back
Oh, she's calling me back
Mhm, she's calling me back

Soon as I get a chance to do some traveling
Think maybe I'll go back Missouri way
Like to go back and visit some of my relatives, yeah
Last I heard everybody was doing okay
Everybody was doing alright

Grandfather, see, was a Mohawk Indian
Aunts and uncles and cousins were Indians, too
Grandmother, she was a full-blood Cherokee
Born my mom, and then my mom, she born me

Yeah, stomping grounds, they remain in Missouri, Indian Reservation
Stomping grounds, they remain in Missouri, Indian Reservation
Stomping grounds, they remain in Missouri, Indian Reservation
Stomping grounds, they remain in Missouri, Indian Reservation
