Lyrics
I was walking through the National Mall Thinking about medicinals How they used to grow there When the ground was a marshland Undisturbed by human hands And I heard their voices The Sumac said, "We were always here" The Witch Hazel - "We were always here" The Sa**afras - "We were always here" Bluestem gra**es - "Always here" I looked about, what did I see? Medicinals growing round' me Rising from the gravel The Sumac and the Witch Hazel Come to kill our pain, our sores Come to soothe our troubles The Sumac said, "We were always here" The Witch Hazel - "We were always here" The Sa**afras - "We were always here" Bluestem gra**es - "Always here" But do you see that woman Sitting in the wheelchair? With her Redskins cap on backwards And a plastic bag swinging As from inside a paper wrapper She sips from a bottle A new painkiller For the native people A new painkiller For the native people
