When she's on her best behaviour Don't be tempted by her favours Never turn your back on mother earth
Towns are hurled from A to B By hands that looked so smooth to me Never turn your back on mother earth
Grasp at straws that don't want grasping Gaze at clouds that come down crashing Never turn you back on mother earth
Three days and two nights away from my friends Amen to anything that brings a quick return To my friends To my friends
Never turn your back on mother earth
I'll admit i was unfaithful But from now on i'll be more faithful Never turn your back on mother Never turn your back on mother Never turn your back on mother earth
