John Butler Trio - There'll Come A Time lyrics

rate me

There'll come a time

When you may want just a little more

Societys luxuries are not what you had in store.

They offer no security for your soul.

So Mother Earth is what you need

Maybe this is what you be looking for.

Oh Mother Earth

Got to respect her

She's all around me

Under my feet you know I got to remember,

Mother Earth

Got to defend her.

And to defend her I must respect myself

You know I got to remember

I must remember.

There'll come a time

When we can't take anymore

When the air that we breathe

Has left us rotten to the core

And the water that we drink

You know its no good to drink any more

Do we have to let it go,

Do we have to let it go this far?

Beautiful moon shining over the ocean

Don't you know I'll do it all for you.

Give up my days and my tomorrows

If the words I singing are not true.

Cause in this world and the others

Not a thing that I wouldn't do

Mother Earth your in my soul.

It's my blood your running through.

Must respect myself to respect her,

Must respect myself to Defend her.

Must respect myself to respect her.

Must respect myself.
