Mother Earth

(album: Gov't Mule - 1995)

You may high hat me all the time
You may never go my way
Mother Earth is waiting for you
That's the debt you got to pay

I don't care how great you are
Or what you're worth
When it all comes down
You got to go back to Mother Earth

You may own half a city
Diamonds and pearls
You may have your own airplane
You may fly all over this world

Don't give a damn what you 're worth
When it all comes down
You got to go back to Mother Earth

Play the horses, baby
You may own the race track
You may have enough money,
To buy anything you lack

Don't care how great you are
Don't give a damn what you 're worth
'Cause when it all comes down
You got to go back to Mother Earth

You may high hat me all the time
You may never go my way
Mother Earth is waiting for you
That's the debt you got to pay

I don't care how great you are
Or what you're worth
When it all comes down
You got to go back to Mother Earth
