Refrain : I pray on my knees I pray for grass and trees The spirit is watching Doesn't like what he sees Says the old man Many years ago He was strong and brave Remember so When he tried to save The whole gift of nature Now, He cries Future comes in his eyes Refrain : I pray on my knees I pray for grass and trees The spirit is watching Doesn't like what he sees Says the old man Hear the old man speak To the newborn His voice is too weak For the older sons Who forgot all the learning And now, the forrest is burning Refrain : I pray on my knees I pray for grass and trees The spirit is watching Doesn't like what he sees Says the old man I pray on my knees I pray for grass and trees The spirit is watching Doesn't like what he sees Says the old man
