Stephen Stills - Amazonia lyrics

Amazonia Amazonia From the heart of Amazonia Comes the very air we breathe But the people there are poor Can't see the forest for the trees In the time it takes to sing this song Another acre's gone Gotta save the Amazonia Before all of it is gone Amazonia Amazonia With so many people hungry All those children there to feed No use blaming the Sinterras They've got families Finding other ways to prosper Realize the damage done Educate them with an answer And take care of everyone In Amazonia Amazonia Amazonia Simple answers are much harder To accomplish than the rest And there's always someone getting hurt When you have to do what's best So put your imagination And your shoulder to the task Save the rain forest from ourselves There's no more we can ask
