[Verse 1]
Dm
KAW- LIGA, was a wooden Indian standing by the door He fell in love with an Indian maid over in the antique store
A7 KAW-LIGA - A, just stood there and never let it show Dm So she could never answer "YES" or "NO".
[Verse 2]
Dm
He always wore his Sunday feathers and held a tomahawk The maiden wore her beads and braids and hoped someday he'd talk
A7 KAW-LIGA - A, too stubborn to ever show a sign Dm Because his heart was made of knotty pine.
[Chorus]
D Poor ol' KAW-LIGA, he never got a kiss G Poor ol' KAW-LIGA, he don't know what he missed D A7 Is it any wonder that his face is red D KAW-LIGA, that poor ol' wooden head.
[Verse 3]
Dm
KAW-LIGA, was a lonely Indian never went nowhere His heart was set on the Indian maiden with the coal black hair
A7 KAW-LIGA - A, just stood there and never let it show Dm So she could never answer "YES" or "NO".
[Verse 4]
Dm
Then one day a wealthy customer bought the Indian maid And took her, oh, so far away, but ol' KAW-LIGA stayed
A7 KAW-LIGA - A, just stands there as lonely as can be Dm And wishes he was still an old pine tree.
[Chorus]
D Poor ol' KAW-LIGA, he never got a kiss G Poor ol' KAW-LIGA, he don't know what he missed D A7 Is it any wonder that his face is red D KAW-LIGA, that poor ol' wooden head.
