Oh mother earth, with your fields of green
Em C D
One more laid down down by the hungry hand
G C G
How long can you give and not receive
Em G D G
And feed this world ruled by greed x2
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
They hold the world in their changing hands
Oh freedom land can you let this go
Down to the streets where the numbers grow?
Respect mother earth and her giving ways
Or trade away our children's days x2
D G C G
Respect mother earth and her healing ways
Em G D C G
Or trade away our children's days
