Red Earth Circle

[Verse 1] On red earth we gather Heel to the ground Morning smoke rising Circles all around Grandmother, hear me I bring my song Children on the edge of it Singing along [Chorus] Hey hey, rise up Hey hey, come home Round and round we carry it Round and round we go Hey hey, rise up Hey hey, come home Our footsteps remember (our footsteps remember) [Verse 2] Blue cloth on the shoulder Beads catching sun A drum like a heartbeat One by one by one Hands up for the dancers Feet making prayer Wind moves through the cottonwoods We are still there [Chorus] Hey hey, rise up Hey hey, come home Round and round we carry it Round and round we go Hey hey, rise up Hey hey, come home Our footsteps remember (our footsteps remember) [Bridge] Tell me the old names Soft in the dust Tell me we carry them Carry them with us [Final Chorus] Hey hey, rise up Hey hey, come home Round and round we carry it Round and round we go Hey hey, rise up Hey hey, come home Our footsteps remember (our footsteps remember)
