<BR>

<i>[Originally performed by Sparks]</i><br>

<br>

When she's on her best behavior<br>

Don't be tempted by her favors<br>

Never turn your back on mother earth<br>

<br>

Towns are hurled from A to B<br>

By hands that looked so smooth to me<br>

Never turn your back on mother earth<br>

<br>

Grasp at straws that don't want grasping<br>

Gaze at clouds that come down crushing<br>

Never turn your back on mother earth<br>

<br>

Three days, two nights away from my friends<br>

Amen to anything that brings quick return<br>

To my friends, to my friends<br>

<br>

I'll admit I was unfaithful<br>

From now on I'll be more faithful<br>

<br>

Never turn your back on mother<br>

(Never turn your back)<br>

Never turn your back on mother<br>

(Never turn your back)<br>

Never turn your back on mother earth<br>

(Never turn your back)<br>

<BR><BR>
