The rock band Wounded Knee

Big sister was pregnant the third time
When we all realized
That Eino's garage door
Can be locked and the noise won't wake him up
We were Käpä and Antsu,
Pykä and I and the crazy son of the salesman
He was later caught burning the church
when he stopped to fry potatoes there
At the corner of the garage we pondered
what shall we do with his
When someone said: Let's start a rock band
and call it Wounded Knee
 
The road is open all the way to heaven and never back
Shala la la laa la la la la
Shala laa laa la didadamdii
The road is open up to heaven, we sang with our hair standing up
My friends and I
The rock band Wounded Knee
 
We painted onto that corrugated metal door
A circle and a damn big A
So that all would remember
What we are playing for
Käpä brought his deceased uncle's drums
And all else we bought
I guess Eikka could heat his flat with the ads for half a year
And so we tasted crow blood
And smoked tea from a pipe
made a cocktail of aspirin and pilsner
And so Wounded Knee could jam
 
The road is open all the way to heaven and never back
Shala la la laa la la la la
Shala laa laa la didadamdii
The road is open up to heaven, we sang with our hair standing up
My friends and I
The rock band Wounded Knee
 
Then Pykä left for the military
And Antsu got a job in Stadi 1
He got too good for aspirin-beer
When he visited some Saturday
Käpä set out to naval cuisine school on Christmas
and left to the seas to cook
So the crazy son of the salesman and I
were left to rock alone
But when I was sad and depressed
I guess he remained in the heavens
His coat said Wounded Knee
when he was arrested in the churchyard
 
The road is open all the way to heaven and never back
Shala la la laa la la la la
Shala laa laa la didadamdii
The road is open up to heaven, we sang with our hair standing up
My friends and I
The rock band Wounded Knee
