John Butler Trio There`ll Come A Time Lyrics

There`ll Come A Time Lyrics

There'll come a time 

When you may want just a little more 

Societys luxuries are not what you had in store. 

They offer no security for your soul. 

So Mother Eart is what you need 

Maybe this is what you be looking for. 



Oh Mother Earth 

Got to respect her 

She's all around me 

Under my feet you know I got to remember, 

Mother Earth 

Got to defend her. 

And to defend her I must respect myself 

You know I got to remember 

I must remember. 



There'll come a time 

When we can't take anymore 

When the air that we breath 

Has left us rotten to the core 

And the water that we drink 

You know its no good to drink any more 

Do we have to let it go, 

Do we have to let it go this far? 



Beautiful moon shining over the ocean 

Don't you know I'll do it all for you. 

Give up my days and my tomorrows 

If the words I singing are not true. 

Cause in this world and the others 

Not a thing that I wouldn't do 

Mother Earth your in my soul. 

It's my blood your running through. 



Must respect myself to respect her, 

Must respect myself to Defend her. 

Must respect myself to respect her. 

Must respect myself.
