Did you know when you built your cave,
and used your tools to hunt for prey,
Did you know there would come a day
your fires and fury would lead this way?
 
CHORUS
And when you held your stick up high
And aimed it at the endless sky -
Did you think you would touch the hand
of someone in the Seventh Generation?
Reaching over five thousand Nations
Like you reached me? Whoa yeah!
 
As you drifted, counting stars --
did you think you'd sail this far?
As the New World welcomed you --
Could you guess the harm you'd do?
 
On the day she won the vote --
and spoke above the cigar smoke,
She said "A woman's place is Life!" --
Did she think we'd get the right?
 
On the day you took a stand,
and tied your leg to a Redwood branch
Could you see a greener day,
when asphalt lots are cleared away?
