ooh
I'd like to sing you a new song called 'Mother Earth.'
deep brown earth
moon in the branches
have gone where
nightingales sing
I love him, body and soul
night songs pierce my ear
and ringdo you believe
in Mother Earth?
she will hear you
the earth smells of her
and God is her lover
she will hear you
with wisdom and lovelife, I know
is the natural blues
natural like earth and God above
first step to heaven
is to pay your dues
roots and meanings flyin' lovedo you believe
in Mother Earth?
she will hear you
the earth smells of her
and God is her lover
she will hear you
with wisdom and lovebless the train
on the cold snowy winter track
the wind takes you back home
and you may go
to the northwest passage
but never from your heart
must you roamdo you believe
in Mother Earth, child?

the earth smells of her
and God is her lover
