springtime falls and mother is here
she giving life to her children so dear
mud puddle babies sea to shining sea
well we`re living with our mother no wants no needs
well it`s your springtime mother in a floral print dress
tending all her people with her tender loving sweet caress
don`t throw away your mother don`t you put her to the test
Don`t you put her to the test
summertime breaks and the school bells end
she tries to teach you right but you don`t pay attention
you run away from mother with your candy cane dream
while the sticky black shoreline cries unseen
well it won`t be your
mother you`re all I need
come to me and bare your seed
driving the cycle stripped by greed
mother you`re all I need
mother you`re all I see
come to me I`ll set you free
it`s a tricky survival can`t you see
mother you`re all I need
the shadows of fall line mother`s face
the guardians of life lie in disgrace
the fires that flare from a richer man`s dice
well they whisper through the trees
like a spider web on ice
`cause it won`t be your springtime mother in a floral print dress
tending all her people with her tender loving sweet caress
don`t throw away your mother don`t you put her to the test
don`t you put her to the test
the howl of winter is the cry of her pain
the green people listen but they labor in vain
if we don`t stop now its our
mother we`re killing
then who will care for the springtime children
it won`t be your mother
oh why don`t you love your mother earth
