Animals, birds and trees
Are related to you and me
We all need the wild places,
Waterfalls, rocks and bees
To make us happy... feel free
Let's take care of our family
We need streams for our fishes
Oceans for our whales
Rainforests to make fresh clean air
We need leaves for bugs to eat
Tall trees for owl nests
Icebergs for big polar bears
We need to fix our atmosphere
Keep poisons from our soil
Live in harmony with earth, everywhere
Animals, birds and trees
Are related to you and me
We all need the wild places,
With waterfalls, rocks and bees
To make us happy... feel free
Let's take care of our family
So make friends with sister squirrel
Go hug your favorite tree
Kiss a butterfly's nose if you dare
Lie down on soft green grass
Feel the cool wind on your cheek
Let your mind wander skies so fair
Don't use more than you need
Let the wild places be
And remember earth is precious and is rare
All together now
Animals, birds and trees
Are related to you and me
We all need the wild places,
With waterfalls, rocks and bees
To make us happy... feel free
Let's take care of our family
Animals, birds and trees
Are related to you and me
We all need the wild places,
With waterfalls, rocks and bees
To make us happy... feel free
Let's take care of our family
