Lyrics

Recorded by hank williams
Written by hank williams and fred rose

Key: e capo: 2nd play: d

Kaw- ( dm ) liga, was a wooden indian standing by the door
He fell in love with an indian maid over in the antique store
Kaw-liga - a, just stood there and never let it [a7] show
So she could never answer "yes" or ( dm ) "no"

He always wore his sunday feathers and held a tomahawk
The maiden wore her beads and braids and hoped someday he'd talk
Kaw-liga - a, too stubborn to ever show a sign
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 ) is it any wonder that his face is [a7] red
Kaw-liga, that poor ol' wooden ( d ) head. ... ( dm )

Kaw-liga, was a lonely indian never went nowhere
His heart was set on the indian maiden with the coal black hair
Kaw-liga - a, just stood there and never let it show
So she could never answer "yes" or "no"

Then one day a wealthy customer bought the indian maid
And took her, oh, so far away, but ol' kaw-liga stayed
Kaw-liga - a, just stands there as lonely as can be
And wishes he was still an old pine tree

Chorus
