CYNDI LAUPER - Mother Earth lyrics

rate me

<span class="feat">(feat. Allen Toussaint)</span>

You may high five me all the time

You may never go my way

Mother Earth is layin' for you

'Cause there's a debt you've got to pay

I don't care how rich you are

I don't care what you're worth

When it all comes down

You've got to go back to Mother Earth

You may own half a city

Diamonds and pearls

You may buy an airplane, baby,

And fly all over this world

I don't care how great you are

I don't care what you're worth

When it all comes up

You've got to go back to Mother Earth

You may play the racehorses

You may own a racetrack

You may have enough money, baby,

To buy anything you like

I don't care how great you are

I don't care what you're worth

When it all goes up

You've got to go back to Mother Earth

You may play the racehorses

You may own your own track

You may have enough money

To buy anything you like

I don't care how great you are

No, I don't care what you're worth

When it all comes up

You've got to go back to Mother Earth
