[Verse 1]
Children of the land don't wear a frown upon your face
Come on and join your hands, we're all part of the human race
The music is here to let you leave your fears behind
Come on along, don't get me wrong and see what you might a-find
[Verse 2]
Children of the land
Children of the land
Don't misunderstand
You're all children of the land
[Verse 3]
Don't trust anyone else to run your life and set your goals
You gotta be able to live with yourself when you are getting old
Others are gettin' blamed for messin' your life around
It's your own fault if you complain for letting it get you down
[Verse 4]
Children of the land
Children of the land
Don't misunderstand
You're all children of the land
[Verse 5]
Children, come on, children now
Children, yeah
Children, I said children, yeah
Children, alrighty now
Children, wow, man, yeah
Children of the land
Children of the land
Children, I said of the land
[Verse 6]
Another new day takes up on him
A fanfare wakes the land
The naked life just a shinin' down
At the dawn of the common man
[Verse 7]
Outside in the madding crowd
He laughs along the way
Traffic city, what a pity
It doesn't have a word to say
[Verse 8]
Troubled people, busy people
They can't seem to understand
The ringing ears are unable to hear
The sounds of the natural plan
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 9]
Morning sunshine
On carpets of green
Cascades of water
Are flowing endlessly
[Verse 10]
Here in the morning light
We spent our holiday
Here in the morning
At Mother Nature's matinee
[Verse 11]
Here in the morning
At Mother Nature's matinee
Here in the morning
At Mother Nature's matinee
