Ziggy Marley - Beautiful Mother Nature Lyrics

Beautiful mother nature

She looked at me with a smile on her face

Then she started to cry

She said, "Why did my children forsake me?"

She felt like she was dying

Oh, ungrateful children

When she was young, she was beautiful and strong

The more children she had, the more things went wrong

Now, she's feeling old and cold

And her heart doesn't feel love anymore

Beautiful mother nature

She sat me down and told me to sing her a song

Maybe it would make her feel better

Maybe her children would sing along

And see the wrong we have done

Make amends to mend her heart

She still wouldn't hate none of her children

No matter what cruelties they've done

She'll always be there when her baby's crying

She's a mother, she's a mother you can depend on

Beautiful mother nature

She's hoping her children will love her again

Like once she remember

Before skyscrapers and chemical plants

When she was all that we had

Before they polluted her sacred land

Now, her tears are falling like acid rain

And her voice sounds like earthquake

I had to beg her, "Mother, please don't leave

Give another chance, I'll talk to the kids"

Beautiful mother nature, she was my

Beautiful mother nature still is my

Beautiful mother nature, she is my

Beautiful mother nature still is my
