Lyrics:

i found myself a cherokee wife last spring
i found myself a cherokee wife last spring
she talked too much but she was the prettiest little thing

she talked all day and she talked all week
she talked all day and she talked all week
she talked while we're eatin
she even talked in her sleep

my cherokee i don't love you
your drivin me insane
and i can't take another day with you
my little cherokee
my little cherokee

i tried to lose her to a stranger in a game of cards
i tried to lose her to a stranger in a game of cards
but i came out a rich man sometimes lifes so hard

well i tried to give her back to the chief of her tribe
i tried to give her back to the chief of her tribe
but when i found their camp they were gone and i know why

my cherokee i don't love you
your drivin me insane
and i can't take another day with you
my little cherokee
my little cherokee

i left her at a mission just outside of town
i left her at a mission just outside of town
but the silence was too much i needed my cherokee around

we road away together just as happy as can be
we road away together just as happy as can be
well i guess that i love her and i guess that she loves me

my cherokee i do love you
you help to keep me sane
and i can't understand a word that you say
but your my little cherokee
your my little cherokee
your my little cherokee
