Lyrics Half Breed - Shania Twain

Half Breed

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»
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 weren’t accepted and I felt ashamed
Nineteen I left them
Tell me, who’s to blame?
My life since then has been from man to man
But I can’t run away from what I am
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
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
