Earth Mother Lyrics - Singles - Paul Kantner

Earth mother your children are here 

High and feeling dandy 

Earth mother your children are here 

Ripped on coke and candy 

Once the earth was a garden 

It gave us all we need 

Then it grew so barren 

All because of greed 

Once the air was for breathing 

And clouds caused rain to fall 

Then it filled with poisons 

Strangling us all 

Chorus 

Water was once for drinking 

And giving life to the land 

Then it was used for cooling 

The machinery of man 

Chorus 

It's not your fault you're ill now 

It's the men who went before 

Your children are at your side now 

Don't worry anymore 

Your children are your salvation 

They see your life as their own 

They recognize no nation 

They dance around your throne 

Dancing in the meadows 

To the sound of a living tree 

In and out of the shadows 

Laughing with the breeze 

Chorus x2
