Lyrics
As far to the East the oceans roar
As far to the West the mountains did not care
Listen, did you hear that sound?
Another acre hits the ground
Houses bought and houses built
While bank accounts erase the guilt
Puny men with narrow minds
The richest man I ever knew
Still left it all behind
As far to the East the oceans roar
As far to the West the mountains did not care
As far to the East the oceans roar
As far to the West the mountains did not care
Come on children, go to school
And learn to live the golden rule
Get paid the most to work the least
Exploit the man, enslave the beast
Pompous men, so full of pride
The smartest man I ever knew
Still lived his life and died
As far to the East the oceans roar
As far to the West the mountains did not care
As far to the East the oceans roar
As far to the West the mountains did not care
Yippie yi yaaaaay
Yippie yi Ohhhhh
Yippie yi yaaaaay
Yippie yi Ohhhhh
Ghost riders in the sky
Listen, don't you understand
That no-one owns a promised land?
The winds still blow, the rains still fall
The trees don't seem to care at all
"Silly fool," the willow sighs
"The wisest man I ever knew
"Lived long ago, and died."
As far to the East the oceans roar
As far to the West the mountains did not care
As far to the East the oceans roar
As far to the West the mountains did not care
As far to the East the oceans roar
As far to the West the mountains did not care
As far to the East the oceans roar
As far to the West the mountains did not care
