Píseň: Boy From The Country

Interpret:
John Denver
Album:
Some Days Are Diamonds
Because he called the forest "Brother" 
 Because he calls the Earth his mother 
 They drove him out into the rain 
 Some people even said the boy from the country was insane 


 Because he spoke to fish in the creek 
 He tried to tell us that the animals could speak 
 Who knows? Perhaps they do 
 How do you know they don't just because they've never spoken to you? 


 Boy from the country 
 Left his home when he was young 
 Boy from the country 
 He loves the sun. 


 He tried to tell us we should love the land 
 We just turned our heads and laughed; you see we did not understand 
 Sometimes I think the boy from the country is the only one who sees 
 'Cause the boy from the country doesn't want to see the forest for the trees. 


 Boy from the country 
 Left his home when he was young 
 Boy from the country 
 He loves the sun.
