《The Good Earth(Previously Unissued)》歌词

[00:00:00] When i was a child and the road was dark

[00:00:02] And the way was long and alone

[00:00:05] My heart would lift as i turned the bend and saw the lights of home

[00:00:10] Now high above in a silent sky

[00:00:13] In a still and starry space

[00:00:16] A man looks down on the earth below

[00:00:19] And that blue and green and shining glow

[00:00:22] To him is the lights of home

[00:00:25] It's the good earth yes the good earth

[00:00:29] It's a land of sun and rain and snow

[00:00:31] And mulberry trees and mistletoe

[00:00:34] And burning plains and raging seas

[00:00:37] And sunday morning taking your ease

[00:00:39] Watching your children grow

[00:00:43] It's the good earth yes the good earth

[00:00:46] Where we fought and loved and killed and died

[00:00:49] And ruined and ravished the countryside

[00:00:53] But now from a million miles away

[00:00:56] From another world that's cold and gray

[00:00:59] Someone is able to look and say

[00:01:02] That's the good earth

[00:01:06] So isn't it time we stopped the tears

[00:01:08] We've lived together for thousands of years

[00:01:12] And whether i'm wrong and whether you're right

[00:01:15] Whether you're black and whether i'm white

[00:01:18] One day we'll stand on the edge of the world

[00:01:21] And someone will ask us the land of our birth

[00:01:24] And we'll look into his eyes and quietly say

[00:01:28] It's the good earth yes the good earth

[00:01:33] Why can't we be good on the good earth
