Because he called the forest brother |
|
Because he called the earth his mother |
|
They drove him out into the rain |
|
Some people even said that the boy from the country was insane |
|
Because he spoke with fish in the creek |
|
He tried to tell us that the animals could speak |
|
Who knows, perhaps they do, how do you know they don't |
|
Just because they're never spoken to you |
|
Boy from the country, left his home, he was young |
|
Boy from the country, he loves the sun |
|
Yes, he does, yes, he does |
|
He tried to tell us we should love the land |
|
We just turned our heads and laughed |
|
See we did not understand |
|
Sometimes |
|
I think the boy from the country |
|
Is the only one who sees' |
|
Cause the boy from the country |
|
Doesn't want to see the forest for the trees |
|
Boy from the country, left his home, he was young |
|
Boy from the country, he loved the sun |
