FYI: Cher is not half Cherokee. Her father is the darker one (Armenian) and her mother Georgia is quite white (although like many white people claim, supposedly has traces of Cherokee or other Native American blood). The song was written for Cher though because she could pass as a half-breed Indian squaw, especially with her exotic looks and long straight black hair.
Thank you for clarifying about her Cherokee blood. I'd like to piont out that it
only became fashionable in the "70"s to be Native,otherwise it was as bad as being
colored socially. Out of the 500 nations in the Continental U.S. the only tribe everyone is from is "Cherokee"?
Doubtful...
