I feel the need to post this underrated classic again....




"I'm a hungry planet, I had a youthful face
They were in a hurry to go to outer space
They needed bombs and tungsten, ore and iron too
So they climbed and they dug and they blew divided me right in two

I'm a hungry planet orbiting in the sky
The things they did to hurt me pass on by and by
Now here I am all alone, they never ever learn
Well I had to shake and quake and make their houses burn

I'm a hungry planet, I had the blueest seas
All the people kept chopping down all my finest trees
Poisening my oxygen, diggin' in my skin
Takin' more out of my earth than they'll ever put back in
I'm a hungry planet"

I'm not normally a big fan of hardcore vibrato, but Joan Baez makes it work for me in this one...

"Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more
Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more

But man, he done come an' gone, polluted all around
There ain't no river runnin', no water can't be found

Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more

Fish ain't swimmin', ain't no fish around nowhere
Fish ain't swimmin', ain't nobody seem to care

They bottled up and dammed it, choked it up and canned it
Killed the life around it and stole it like a bandit

Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more

What used to be a river, now is just an empty site
Ain't no vegetation, it's just an agitation, it don't seem right

There ain't no trees a growin', no animals are showin'
What used to be a stream is now just a dream

Stone River, water ain't runnin' nowhere
Stone River, water ain't runnin'

Man, he done cut it off, and moved it all around
There ain't no river runnin', no water can't be found

Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more

They bottled up and dammed it, choked it up and canned it
Killed the life around it and stole it like a bandit

Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more

There ain't no trees a growin', no animals are showin'
What used to be a stream is now just a dream

Stone River, water ain't runnin' nowhere
Stone River, water ain't runnin' nowhere

Stone River, water ain't runnin' no more"

I posted this classic almost a year ago..but it's since been removed by YT...so I'll try it again....


Whenever I need to leave it all behind
Or feel the need to get away
I find a quiet place, far from the human race
Out in the country

Before the breathin' air is gone
Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime
Out where the rivers like to run
I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'

Whenever I feel them closing in on me
Or need a bit of room to move
When life becomes too fast, I find relief at last
Out in the country

Before the breathin' air is gone
Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime
Out where the rivers like to run
I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'

Before the breathin' air is gone
Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime
Out where the rivers like to run
I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'
