Mother of the Earth.

I've gone down the river of sadness I've gone down the river of pain in the dark, under the wires. I hear them call my name

I gave you the key to the highway and the key to my motel door and I'm tired of leaving and leaving so, I won't come back no more

Oh, my dark-eyed friend I'm recalling you again soft voices that speak nothing speak nothing to the end

Oh, Mother of Earth the blind they call but, yet stay behind the wall their sadness grows like weeds upon my thighs and knees

Oh, Mother of Earth the wind is hot I tried my best, but I could not and my eyes fade from me
in this open country
