Mother Earth (Provides for Me) Songtext
von Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Mother Earth lives on the ocean
Mother Earth sails on the sea
I am blessed with her devotion
Mother Earth provides for me
When the grasslands crave for water
and the harvest needs sunlight
these are times when I am helpless
Mother Earth makes all things right

Green trees grow on a mountain top
birds still sing when the morning comes
and though I treat her carelessly
Mother Earth still cares for me
Mother Earth still cares for me


I am going on a journey
and I pray all things end well
but Mother Earth looks after me
and I will follow faithfully

Green trees grow on a mountain top
(on a mountain)
birds still sing when the morning comes
(when the morning comes)
and though I treat her carelessly
Mother Earth still cares for me

Mother Earth lives on the ocean
Mother Earth sails on the sea
I am blessed with her devotion
Mother Earth provides for me
Mother Earth provides for me
Mother Earth provides for me
My-my-my, Mother Earth provides for me
mmm MMM mmm MMM
mmm MMM mmm MMM
