B I A

A sinner in search of salvation
Discovered the Cherokee Nation
So many look white
The fit was just right
What white man needs a reservation?

Love the play on words at the end there. I have Cherokee in my ancestry. Sadly it did not show up in a genetic test my sister had. I guess it goes too far back.

The Cherokees have more blue-eyed blonde Enrolled Tribal Members than any other tribe as they foolishly welcomed Europeans, so perhaps you only had one ancestor who was not 100% Cherokee? Perhaps you are reincarnate Cherokee, aka all heart? Aloha!
