Half-breed Lyrics - The Very Best Of Cher - Cher

My father married a pure Cherokee 

My mother's people were ashamed of me 

The indians said I was white by law 

The White Man always called me "Indian Squaw" 

Half-breed, that's all I ever heard 

Half-breed, how I learned to hate the word 

Half-breed, she's no good they warned 

Both sides were against me since the day I was born 

We never settled, went from town to town 

When you're not welcome you don't hang around 

The other children always laughed at me "Give her a feather, she's a Cherokee"

My life since then has been from man to man 

But I can't run away from what I am
