Brown Earth Lyrics - Singles - Laura Nyro

Morning 

Came to the windows in the street 

Selling red watermelon, 5 cents a piece. 

Merry boat on the river 

Freedom 

Fresh drams to deliver 

Freedom 

Over and over and over 

I call out your name. 

God standing on the brown earth 

"Get up" want a hollers 

Shooflies in my doorway 

White dove's gonna come today 

Oh what a morning 

I feel so good 

Oh what a morning 

Of brotherhood. 

Hold me by the light 

Kitten run the neighborhood 

Through ragamuffin boys 

All the world is new 

By the light of day 

Give with your heart 

And love will come to you 

Kids come in all shapes and colours 

To the cool morning dew. 

Merry boat on the river 

Freedom 

Fresh drams to deliver 

Freedom 

Over and over and over 

I call out your name. 

God standing on the brown earth 

Lovelight in the morning 

Shooflies in my doorway 

White dove's gonna come today.
