Cinnamon hills
Sweet child
And waves of whisper blue
Earth calls to you
Every day in every way
Momma's puttin' on some warpaint
For a little bit of combat
You asked the reason
You gotta fight for your freedom
Sometimes everyday
In every way
Many people pass by
Caught up in roles and rules
Many rivers run free
I don't want to' crush
The wilderness in you child
Or the wilderness in me
How do we keep them both alive?
Somehow they must survive
Somehow they must survive
We go together
Through the changing seasons
Hearts afire
You know the world needs it
Everyday in every way
Little darling
Zap
Touch the earth child
Heaven and earth child
Ahm ahm ahm
Is that a monster?
Yep - no, a crocodile
Ee's eatin' the bed
See I'm?
Ahm ahm ahm
I'm ona eat mommy
And bed all up!
Ahm ahm ahm
