Beautiful Mother Nature - Ziggy Marley And The Melody Makers

beautiful mother nature,

she looked at me with a smile on her face

then she started to cry,

she said: «why did my children forsake me?»

she felt like she was dying,

oh ungrateful children

when she was young she was beautiful and strong

the more children she had the more things went wrong

now she`s feeling old and cold

and her heart doesn`t feel love anymore

beautiful mother nature,

she sat me down and told me to sing her song

maybe it would make her feel better,

maybe her children would sing along

and see the wrong we have done,

make amends to ment her heart

she still wouldn`t hate none of her children

no matter what cruel things they’ve done

she`ll always be there when her baby`s crying

she`s a mother she`s a mother you can depend on beautiful mother nature,

she`s hopin`her children will love her again

like once she remember,

before skyscrapers and chemical plants

when she was all that we had,

before they polluted her sacred land

now her tears are falling like acid rain

and her voice sounds like earthquake

i had to beg her: «mother, please don`t leave

give another chance, i’ll talk to the kids

beautiful mother nature she was my beautiful mother nature still is my beautiful mother nature she is my beautiful mother nature still is my my my
