Chorus 1
A
Call him drunken Ira Hayes
D
He won't answer anymore
E
Not the whiskey drinking Indian
A
Nor the Marine that went to war
Verse 1
A
Gather round me people
D
there's a story I would tell
E
About a brave young Indian
A
you should remember well
From the land of the Pima Indian
D
A proud and noble band
E
Who farmed the Phoenix valley
A
in Arizona land
Down the ditches for a thousand years
D
The water grew Ira's peoples' crops
E
Until the white man stole the water rights
A
And the sparkling water stopped
Now Ira's folks were hungry
D
And their land grew crops of weeds
E
When war came, Ira volunteered
A
And forgot the white man's greed
Chorus 2
A
Call him drunken Ira Hayes
D
He won't answer anymore
E
Not the whiskey drinking Indian
A
Nor the Marine that went to war
Verse 2
A
There they battled up Iwo Jima's hill
D
Two hundred and fifty men
E
But only twenty-seven lived
A
to walk back down again
And when the fight was over
D
And Old Glory raised
E
Among the men who held it high
A
Was the Indian, Ira Hayes
A

Verse 3
A
Ira Hayes returned a hero
D
Celebrated through the land
E
He was wined and speeched and honored
A
Everybody shook his hand
But he was just a Pima Indian
D
No water, no home, no chance
E
At home nobody cared what Ira'd done
A
And when did the Indians dance?
Chorus 4
A
Call him drunken Ira Hayes
D
He won't answer anymore
E
Not the whiskey drinking Indian
A
Nor the Marine that went to war
Verse 4
A
Then Ira started drinking hard
D
Jail was often his home
E
They'd let him raise the flag and lower it
A
Like you'd throw a dog a bone!
He died drunk early one morning
D
Alone in the land he fought to save
E
Two inches of water in a lonely ditch
A
Was a grave for Ira Hayes
Chorus 5
A
Call him drunken Ira Hayes
D
He won't answer anymore
E
Not the whiskey drinking Indian
A
Nor the Marine that went to war
Outro 1
A
Yeah, call him drunken Ira Hayes
D
But his land is just as dry
E
And his ghost is lying thirsty
A
In the ditch where Ira died
