I Am The Lion Lyrics - Neil Diamond

There was a flood and many poor men were killed. 

And that is why our house is built on the top of a hill. 

The plains are like a friend, why can't we live on them? 

And if a flood should come, why can't we run? 

I Am The Lion, bellowing out in the night. 

We had a cow, I left it alone to graze. 

And walked to the stream and when I returned, it was stolen away. 

But now the cow is gone and we don't need a farm. 

We have not one thing they 

would steal away. 

I Am The Lion bellowing out at the night. 

I Am The Lion bellowing out at the night. 

I am... the lion.
