Give me the good earth I was born on Give me the sunshine the grass and the trees Give me the open skies that I can dream on Give me the flowers, the birds and the trees Give me the good earth to lay my head on Give me the mountains, the cool summer breeze Give me the forests, the deep river valleys Give me the oceans the fish and the seas I don't need to know about the things that lay beyond my life I don't need to know about the things that I don't need Give me the good earth to rest my mind on Give me the rainfall that fills empty streams Give me the life in the hills and the meadows Give me the seasons all the changes they bring
