Beautiful Mother Nature
Written by David "Ziggy" Marley
Appears on the album `Free Like We Want 2 B` (1995)

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
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 a song
Maybe it would make her feel better
Maybe her children would sing along

And see the wrong we have done
Make amends to mend 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 babies are crying
She's a mother a mother you can depend on

Beautiful Mother Nature
She's hoping 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
Now her tears are falling like acid rain
And her voice sounds like earthquake

I had to beg her Mother please don't leave
Give another chance I'll talk to the kids
Beautiful Mother Nature
She was my
Beautiful Mother Nature
Still is my
Beautiful Mother Nature
She is my
Beautiful Mother Nature
Still is my

This and Michael Jackson's 'Earth Song' are my favorite songs that speak of our world and how it's not always taken care of by its human custodians. Funny how both were made in the same year ('95).

Guidance and protection, 1 <3 give thanks for posting this, get involved, go vegan now! Whole Foods can hold your hand, if you haven't a 100 % Vegan Store near you. Eat in only 100 % vegan establishments with fair trade products that do not endorse abuse, maltreatment of human rights or deception (using dairy derivatives and on same equipment) Killing is a sin.
