Warner Music - Motherland lyrics

[Verse One] Oh, Mr. River Man, I can't seem to understand How you keep flowing and going and moving as smooth as you can It's a shame how we take you for granted but then again we're all human Oh, Mr. River Man, I give you my hand [Chorus] And I keep praying and hoping and wishing Dreaming and waiting and waiting You will be heard someday Praying and hoping and wishing Dreaming and waiting and waiting You will be free someday [Verse Two] Oh, Mr. Willow Tree, I can't imagine how you breathe So much pollution ain't doing, ain't doing too good for you and me (No, no, no, no, no) You wish upon a shooting star once or twice at night Oh, Mr. Willow Tree, do you mind if I take a seat? (Seat) [Chorus] Hey, praying and hoping and wishing Dreaming and waiting and waiting You will be heard someday Praying and hoping and wishing Dreaming and waiting and waiting You will be free someday [Bridge] We keep on growing and painting Creating new ways to take over our mother's land Why, when we have everything We need right here given to us in our own hands? Ah, every human has his plan And it's my plan to take a stand Said every human has his plan And it's my plan to take a stand, yeah [Chorus (2x)] Praying and hoping wishing Dreaming and waiting and waiting You will be heard someday Praying and hoping and wishing Dreaming and waiting and waiting You will be free someday [Outro] Praying and hoping wishing Dreaming and waiting and waiting Praying and hoping and wishing Dreaming and waiting, waiting (Praying and hoping wishing dreaming and waiting) Waiting, waiting Praying and hoping wishing Dreaming and waiting and waiting
