MOON MULLICAN - CHEROKEE BOOGIE.

CHEROKEE BOOGIE
(Moon Mullican - Chief William Redbird)
MOON MULLICAN (KING 965, 1951)

Oh, a cherokee chief as he dances along
He sings an indian boogie to a white man's song
Sayin' he-ho-a-lena, sayin' he-ho-a-lena
Sayin' he-ho-a-lena, oh-oh na-which-a-na-hey

Well, he dances over here and he dances over there
Now he's dancing with a squaw called Standing Bear
Sayin' he-ho-a-lena, sayin' he-ho-a-lena
Sayin' he-ho-a-lena, oh-oh na-which-a-na-hey

Well, he dances on a hill and he dances on a rock
But he keeps on shaking his ol' tomahawk
Sayin' he-ho-a-lena, sayin' he-ho-a-lena
Sayin' he-ho-a-lena, oh-oh na-which-a-na-hey

Now, he sings a little soft and he sings a little loud
And his tom-tom beating so big and proud
Sayin' he-ho-a-lena, sayin' he-ho-a-lena
Sayin' he-ho-a-lena, oh-oh na-which-a-na-hey

Wel, he's a cherokee chief as you all might know
When he sings his boogie singing "nuven-yo"
Sayin' he-ho-a-lena, sayin' he-ho-a-lena
Sayin' he-ho-a-lena, oh-oh na-which-a-na-hey
