Here the roar a coming Here the roar a coming Here the roar a coming now
Got news for your mother Got news for your mother Got news for your mother tonight
Sister, I have touched the evergreen And I promise that it's life should go unseen Now it saves the birds upon the fire And the message from the country rises higher
Hear the birdie calling Hear the birdie calling Hear the birdie calling for life
Message from the country Message from the country Message from the country rising high
Sister, I have touched the evergreen And I promise that it's life should go unseen Now it saves the birds upon the fire And the message from the country rises higher
