Lyrics Hank Williams Jr. – Kiss Mother Nature Goodbye
Text:
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
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 death
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…
