Give Me the Good Earth - Manfred Mann's Earth Band

Give me the good earth that I was born on Give me the sunshine, the grass and the trees

Give me 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
