There'll Come a Time by John Butler Trio, The

There'll come a time when you may want just a little more
Societys and luxuries are not what you had in store.
They off no security for you soul.
So mother earth is what you need
Maybe this is what you'll 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 it's no good to drink anymore
Do we have to let it go, do we have to let it go this far?
Beautifull 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'm singing are not true.
Cause in this world and the ither's 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.
