Big Mouth (Lakota: Itȟáŋka) (born 1822–died October 29, 1869) was an Oglala-born leader of the Brulé Lakota, highly regarded by the Brulé for his bravery and aggressive military leadership. He was one of the signers of the second Treaty of Fort Laramie in 1868 and remained a bitter opponent of further American settlement, ridiculing Spotted Tail and other Sioux leaders upon their return from a mission to Washington, D.C.. He was the first son of Old Chief Smoke (1774–1864) and his third wife, Burnt Her Woman. His twin brother was Blue Horse.
One of the principal leaders at the Whetstone Indian Agency, located along the Missouri River, where most of the Brulé and Oglala bands had gathered, Big Mouth gained increasing support for his stance among members of the tribe. He criticized what he described as Spotted Tail's reversal of Sioux policy, saying Spotted Tail had been entertained by American politicians and given a personal tour through the major cities of the east coast. Faced with increasing opposition to his leadership, Spotted Tail visited Big Mouth at his lodge, where, upon approaching the entrance, Big Mouth was seized by two warriors and held down while Spotted Tail shot and killed him.

Mouth-house is an English translation of the German Mundhaus, a term used by Martin Luther for a Protestant Christian church, emphasizing that God's word and God's salvation is an acoustical affair. Mouth-house is another term for a meeting house.
In American Puritan and Congregational churches, their church buildings are termed mouth-houses to signify their purpose as places of public meeting and expression, augmenting their use as places of worship. Old South Meeting House in Boston, termed a mouth-house, was the site of public debate about the American Revolution, the planning of the Boston Tea Party, as well as debate on the issues of slavery, Abolitionism, the Vietnam War, and Iraq War. In contemporary time, Old South Church has acted as a mouth-house in a series of public lectures and seminars that have included leaders of the three monotheistic Abrahamic religions: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.
Findin' a corner in a crowded room
Livin' on the dark side of the moon
My doctor said, ?Son what's killin' you??
He said, "You gotta bad case of the lonesome blues"
And you ain't lonely yet
You don't know how it feels
To have a broken heart
One that ain't never gonna heal
You ain't crying now
And I hope you never will
Try to be happy some how
It's easy to forget
You ain't lonely yet
I tried to call you about a hundred times
You sister says, you're gone and I hope she lyin'
You brother said, "Son, you better move along
'Cause everything you had is long gone ya?
You ain't lonely yet
You don't know how it feels
To have a broken heart
One that ain't never gonna heal
And you ain't cryin' now
I hope you never will
It's easy to forget
But you ain't lonely yet
I'm tellin' you baby
You ain't lonely
You ain't lonely yet
You ain't lonely
You ain't as lonely as it gets
You ain't lonely yet
You ain't lonely
You ain't lonely yet
Can't you hear me sayin'?
You ain't lonely
You ain't as lonely as it gets
You ain't lonely yet
You ain't lonely
You don't know how it feels
You ain't lonely
To have a broken heart
You ain't lonely
One that ain't never gonna heal
And you ain't cryin' now
You ain't lonely
And I hope you never will
You ain't lonely
Try to be happy somehow
It's easy to forget
You ain't lonely yet
