Does anyone actually like this song? I can't help but laugh at the imagery the lyrics conjure up for me.

I don't mind it. Not his best, but not the worst. The outtake version is much better, though.

It's Black Hills. As in the Black Hills of South Dakota, which has a large Native American population.

But I'm gonna hear "black heels" from now on... thanks.

the song is OK,

I Rock Therefor I Am is worse....

As a southerner, I've always heard it as "heels" knowing it was "hills"...

Which made the next line, which I've never actually confirmed via lyric site, even better.

"When he was younger, he used to tell her these heels would longer steel." Um, what? lol

I actually love the song itself, though.

Yes, I know this BUT... due to the way he says it, from the very first time I heard this track it has been "heels"...

An Indian woman buried her grampa in the black heels
When she was young he used to tell her
That these heels belonged to her still
And even though injustice took them heels away
"One day we'll get them back," he said
"And the sun's gonna shine that day"

It's like some multi-generational indian drag queen story...

I was wondering if you were serious or not. I get it now.

Some folks swear that Prince sings "psycho neverhands" in Pink Cashmere.

there was even someone who had/has that as a username here on the org

I love this choon, a really golden(ahem) period for P.

I love the song as well. The whol Chaos and Disorder album actually.

It rocks...the lyrics are cringeworthy, but it rocks!

incredibly dull/random rock track; the kind of song that destroyed C&D's credibility

I LOVE this song, in fact I love the whole first six tracks on C&D.

It's my workout album. Had it on in the gym tonight : )

Psycho Neverhands... that must be Edward Scissorhands' crazy brother.
