You think you own, whatever land you land on
Earth is just a dead thing, you can claim
But I know every rock and tree and creature
Has a soul, has a spirit, has a name.
You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the foot steps of a stranger
You’ll learn things you never knew.

You think you own, whatever land you land on
Earth is just a dead thing, you can claim
But I know every rock and tree and creature
Has a soul, has a spirit, has a name.
You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the foot steps of a stranger
You’ll learn things you never knew.
Have you ever heard a wolf cry to a blue corn moon
Or asked the grinning bob cat why he grins?
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forrest;
Come taste the sun sweet berries of the earth.
Come roll in the riches all around you
And for once, never wonder what it’s worth.
The rain storms and the rivers are my bothers,
The heron and the otter are my friends
We are all connected to each other
By a circle, in a hoop that never ends.
And does the eagle let you know where he has been?
How high does the sycamore grow?
If you cut it down, then you willl never know
And you’ll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon.
Whether we are white or copper skinned
We need to sing with all the voices of the mountains
And paint with all the colors of the wind.
You can own the earth, and still all you’ll own is earth
Till you can paint with all the colors of the wind.
