Rise from the dead in new flesh of purity

Your native soul is dead

We’ve come to destroy your savage way of life

Through our righteous genocide

You will be reborn

Through violence and disease you’ll learn our way of life

The man in you is saved

You will earn your way into our society

By death of the indian

You will be reborn

Through these stripes you are reborn

You will be reborn

Rise from the dead in new flesh of purity

Your native soul is dead

We’ve come to destroy your savage way of life

Through our righteous, genocide you will be reborn

Through violence and disease you’ll learn our way of life

The man in you is saved

You will earn your way into our society

By death of the indian

You will be reborn

Through these stripes you are reborn

You will be reborn
