Thread Name: Help identify this native American song...
Subject: Origins: Please help identify this song...
I am trying to find a song, it is haunting my mind and need to find the name of the song, and possibly who sings it. Its a female singer... the words are as follows: (and please excuse spelling mistakes)

Late at night, you can hear them dancing,
Anna told me one day,
late at night, you can almost hear them singing...

Yes she is older now, but her memory stands still,
yeah Shes older now, just look up over that hill,
late at night, you can hear them dancing,
Anna told me one day....

Yo wee ho, yo ho, yo ho,
guya oneyo, oh heya guy oneyo!

Yo wee ho, yo ho, yo ho,
guya oneyo, oh heya guy oneyo!

Yes shes older now, but the fire still burns,
shes older now, but in her heart,
she yearns to hear them dancing,
to hear them singing...


Yo wee ho, yo ho, yo ho,
guya oneyo, oh heya guy oneyo!

Yo wee ho, yo ho, yo ho,
guya oneyo, oh heya guy oneyo!
