Here where we stand there used to be a forest
A timber rising endlessly before us
We cleared away that God forsaken jungle
And in return the Indians adore us
What was mud now is a highway
Reaching wide into a prairie
Horses run -- cattle are grazing
You would swear it was Oklahoma
Day by day dark is illuminated
God's mistake altered and uncreated
Wrong's made right left to the jungle pioneer
See in the field my little son and daughter
Not long ago that ground was underwater
Now you can see them walking with the cattle
Singing them songs before they go to slaughter
There are those who would oppose us
Crying out, "God save the planet"
Bleeding hearts can't turn asunder
This the eighth and final wonder
Day by day this land is liberated
God's mistake altered and uncreated
Wrong's made right left to the jungle pioneer
A timber rising endlessly before us
We cleared away that God forsaken jungle
And in return the Indians adore us
What was mud now is a highway
Reaching wide into a prairie
Horses run -- cattle are grazing
You would swear it was Oklahoma
Day by day dark is illuminated
God's mistake altered and uncreated
Wrong's made right left to the jungle pioneer
See in the field my little son and daughter
Not long ago that ground was underwater
Now you can see them walking with the cattle
Singing them songs before they go to slaughter
There are those who would oppose us
Crying out, "God save the planet"
Bleeding hearts can't turn asunder
This the eighth and final wonder
Day by day this land is liberated
God's mistake altered and uncreated
Wrong's made right left to the jungle pioneer
