Lyrics
I'm gonna want some when I get there
I'm gonna want to bring some home
I'm gonna want cooperation
When I dig out all your gold
I'm gonna want a big plantation
Want you to make it grow
Put you in a reservation
So I can dig out all your coal
And it's all out in the open
Big black buffalo
I got a fire that needs stoking
And a hunger that won't go
I'm gonna come when you're not ready
I'm gonna take you from your home
I'm gonna bring you 'cross the ocean
And outlaw your native tongue
I'm gonna need your back and shoulders
I'm gonna need your wife and son
We're gonna build a brand new nation
With the barrel of a gun
And it's all out in the open
Big black buffalo
I got a fire that needs stoking
And a hunger that won't go
I'm gonna want some when I get there
I'm gonna want to bring some home
I'm gonna want cooperation
When I dig out all your gold
I'm gonna need your back and shoulders
I'm gonna need your wife and son
We're gonna build a brand new nation
With the barrel of a gun
