Oh, Mother Earth, We are your children
Trees ’n’ people ’n’ field ’n’ stream
Oh, Mother Earth, We are your children
We want to thank you, we want to dream.

Expediency lives in our hearts,
just for a dollar, just for a buck
We rip off tomorrow, we sell off today
What makes us think we won’t have to pay?

Oh, Mother Earth, We are your children
We want to thank you, we want to dream.
