Thanks everyone. Anyone remember this?

We are the red men
Tall and [quaint?]
In our feathers
And warpaint-

Pow wow
Pow wow
We are the men of the old ton cow
[my sister sang "old tin can" - made more sense, but didn't rhyme]

All of us are red men
Feathers in our head men
[spooky deep voice]Down among the dead men
[nornal voice]Pow wow

We come home
From fights and wars
Greeted by our
Long-nosed Squaws

Pow wow
Pow wow
We are the men of the old ton cow
[my sister sang "old tin can" - made more sense, but didn't rhyme]

All of us are red men
Feathers in our head men
[spooky deep voice]Down among the dead men
[nornal voice]Pow wow


And I think there was another verse in the middle about 'Sticks and stones/Bows and arrows/Slings and bones'...
