Thanks for replying! It makes sense to me that many tribes had horse related songs. And now I feel all the more silly for not knowing what tribe the songs I spoke of came from before I posted.

The songs I was trying to get information on are from the Ponca, and Ruminator and Waxezhinga pointed me in the right direction. My father just recently gave me a tape with the songs he used to sing for me on it. The one about the Appaloosa is there, and it's one of my favorites!

Please, if you have any other information you'd like to share about the Lakota, I would enjoy hearing it. Knowing what a song speaks about can give a person new insight to understanding the people who wrote it. IMO anyway.

Thanks again,
