When she's on her best bahaviour
Don't be tempted by her favours
Never turn your back on Mother Earth
Towns are hurled from A to B
By hands that looked so smooth to me
Never turn your back on Mother Earth
Grasp at straws
that don't want grasping
Gaze at clouds
that come down crashing
Never turn your back on Mother Earth
Three days and two nights
away from my friends
Amen to anything that brings
a quick return
To my friends, to my friends
Never turn your back on Mother Earth
Never turn your back on Mother Earth
I'll admit I was unfaithfull
But from now I'll be more faithfull
Never turn your back on Mother
Never turn your back on Mother
Never turn your back on Mother Earth
Don't be tempted by her favours
Never turn your back on Mother Earth
Towns are hurled from A to B
By hands that looked so smooth to me
Never turn your back on Mother Earth
Grasp at straws
that don't want grasping
Gaze at clouds
that come down crashing
Never turn your back on Mother Earth
Three days and two nights
away from my friends
Amen to anything that brings
a quick return
To my friends, to my friends
Never turn your back on Mother Earth
Never turn your back on Mother Earth
I'll admit I was unfaithfull
But from now I'll be more faithfull
Never turn your back on Mother
Never turn your back on Mother
Never turn your back on Mother Earth
