Beautiful Mother Nature Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Beautiful mother nature
She looked at me with a smile on her face;
Then she started to cry
She said: "Why did my children forsake me?"
She felt like she was dying, oh ungrateful children

When she was young, she was beautiful and strong, yea
The more children she had, the more things went wrong
Now she's feeling old and cold
And her heart doesn't feel love anymore

Beautiful mother nature
She sat me down and told me to sing her song;
Maybe it would make her feel better
Maybe her children would sing along
And see the wrong we have done
Make amends to ment her heart

She still wouldn't hate none of her children
No matter what cruel things they've done
She'll always be there when her baby's crying
She's a mother she's a mother you can depend on

Beautiful mother nature
She's hopin' her children will love her again
Like once she remember
Before skyscrapers and chemical plants
When she was all that we had
Before they polluted her sacred land
