Brown Earth Lyrics


Morning, come to the windows of the street
Selling red watermelon, five cents a pieceMerry boat on the river, freedom
Fresh dreams to deliver, freedomOver and over and over
I call out your nameGod standing on the brown earth
Get up, mama hollers
Shooflies in the doorwayWhite doves gonna come today
White doves gonna come todayOh, what a morning, I feel so good
Oh, what a morning of brotherhoodHold me by the light
Kittens run the neighborhood through
Ragamuffin boysAll the world is new by the light of day
Give with your heart and love will come to you
Kids come in all shapes and colors
To the cool morning dewMerry boat on the river, freedom
Fresh dreams to deliver, freedomOver and over and over
And over and over and overGod standing on the brown earth
Lovelight in the morning
Shooflies in the doorwayWhite doves gonna come today
White doves gonna come today

White doves gonna come todayWhite doves gonna come today
White doves gonna come today
White doves gonna come today
