Boy From The Country

Because he called the forest brother

Because he called the earth his mother

They drove him out into the rain

And some people even said

That the boy from the country was insane

Because he spoke with fish in the creek

He tried to tell us that the animals could speak

And who knows, maybe they do

Hey, how do you know they don't

Just because they've never spoken to you

Boy from the country

Left his home when he was young

Boy from the country

He loves the sun

He tried to tell us that we should love the land

We just turned our heads and laughed

You see we did not understand

But you know sometimes I think

The boy from the country

Must be the only one who sees

Because the boy from the country

Doesn't want to see the forest

He'd rather see the trees

Boy from the country

Left his home when he was young

Boy from the country

He loves the sun
