Hard times behind us
|
Hard times ahead
|
It's a miracle we're still living
|
It's a wonder we ain't dead
|
I read it in the paper
|
Heard it on the news
|
This old world's in trouble
|
People, we're all chased by the blues
|
|
The planet still keeps turning
|
Draws a circle 'round the sun
|
Seasons come and seasons go
|
What's been done
|
Can't be made undone
|
|
Mother earth is bleeding
|
She got scars upon her face
|
She gave us what we needed
|
We left her in disgrace
|
Tore away her skin
|
Dug down into her soul
|
Mister Greed keeps digging
|
He's digging far too low
|
|
The planet still keeps turning
|
Draws a circle 'round the sun
|
Seasons come and seasons go
|
What's been done
|
Can't be made undone
|
|
Fires of hate are burning
|
They're burning everywhere
|
Man mistreats his fellow-men
|
We turn our head, don't seem to care
|
But one day before long
|
We got to change our ways
|
Start living like we're meant to
|
Rainbow race
|
|
The planet still keeps turning
|
Draws a circle 'round the sun
|
Seasons come and seasons go
|
What's been done
|
Can't be made undone
|
