Hank Williams Jr. - Kiss Mother Nature Goodbye lyrics

The oil tankers poisoned the oceans bulldozers raviged the land We've taken from sweet mother nature just about all she can stand She just keeps holdin' our hand There's a big tractor loose in the forest ripping the trees from the earth Those redwoods are falling to progress but a few roots still grip the earth How much is that timber worth Well it's time to start askin' some questions like how long can we hold our breath The smoke from those big city factory is chokin' this country to d**h I don't claim to have all the answers but how long can the truth be denied If we don't get our act together start lookin' for ways to survive We can kiss mother nature goodbye Now there's still some fish in the river and young eagles learning to fly The hope of the next generation is soaring up there in the sky But I'm afraid I can read his mind Time to start askin' some questions like how long can we hold our breath...
