Mother Earth [Before and After Version]
Neil Young
Oh, Mother Earth, with your fields of green
Once more laid down by the hungry hand
How long can you give and not receive?
And feed this world ruled by greed
Oh, ball of fire in the summer sky
Your healing light, your parade of days
Are they betrayed by the men of power
Who hold this world in their changing hands
Are they betrayed?
Oh, freedom land, can you let this go?
Down to the streets where the numbers grow
Respect Mother Earth and Her healing ways
Or trade away our children's days
Respect Mother Earth and Her healing ways
Or trade away our children's days
