These sacred hills contain the heart of everything They came to dig for Gold and they're still digging for another seam The ghost dancers sing to bring back the vanquished A century older and mourners still wipe away tears Peoples dreams died here Well so it goes This was how the west was won Drunken Navajos at the end of John Wayne's gun Earning a pittance in monument valley A history re written over and over again An irony not lost on them For a handful of pearls we could have bought Manhattan And we could be living there still Four Hundred promises that crumbled into nothing And dignity all but distilled For a Handful of pearls In the mobile homes where the prefabs and the debris stand Lies the empty shell of a people and a tired land The dust in the bars of the Sioux reservation Are a million miles from civilisation and you And more statistic that we never knew For a handful of pearls we could have bought Manhattan And we could be living there still Four Hundred promises that crumbled into nothing We could have stayed there until Just a handful of pearls could have bought us nothing Only the motive to kill And we choke on the words When every four hours someone is footing the bill For a handful of pearls
