Manhattan Transfer - The Jungle Pioneer (Viola Violar) Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Here where we stand there used to be a forest
  • A timber rising endlessly before us
  • We cleared away that God forsaken jungle
  • And in return the Indians adore us
  • What was mud now is a highway
  • Reaching wide into a prairie
  • Horses run -- cattle are grazing
  • You would swear it was Oklahoma
  • Day by day dark is illuminated
  • God's mistake altered and uncreated
  • Wrong's made right left to the jungle pioneer
  • See in the field my little son and daughter
  • Not long ago that ground was underwater
  • Now you can see them walking with the cattle
  • Singing them songs before they go to slaughter
  • There are those who would appose us
  • Crying out, "God save the planet"
  • Bleeding hearts can't turn assunder
  • This the eighth and final wonder
  • Day by day this land is liberated
  • God's mistake altered and uncreated
  • Wrong's made right left to the jungle pioneer
  • Saddle up giddy up and ride on out of here
  • We got a mile of burning to do today
  • Get along now gonna need you out of here
  • We got a pile of earning to do today
  • Down in Brazil there used to be a forest
  • Now in it's place a crazy wind is whistling
  • As every tree was falling in the forest
  • It made a sound but nobody was listening
  • When the last is buried under
  • What has been will be no longer
  • No matter what man may endeavor
  • Eden's gate closes forever
  • Day by day life is eliminated
  • God's own work altered and eliminated
  • Through it all there stands the jungle pioneer
