Once upon a time, long, long ago
|
People didn't bother much with clothes
|
When the sun arose they all awoke
|
No one spoke
|
|
There was always ready company
|
No one had to eat alone
|
Everybody sat around the fire
|
When the work was done
|
|
Life was pretty simple
|
A person had a role
|
God was everywhere then
|
A person had a soul
|
|
And this was all there was
|
And it was enough
|
The world could never come between us
|
The sky, the horizon, the trees
|
We had enough
|
|
Everyone could play with the little kids
|
Even if they had none of their own
|
No one had to pay, the world belonged to everyone
|
|
The men had tons of muscles
|
From working out of doors
|
They didn't have doors then
|
So they didn't have to lock them
|
|
And this was all there was
|
And it was enough
|
The world could never come between us
|
The sky, the horizon, the trees
|
We had enough
|
|
And you think you're pretty cool
|
But I think you would have been crap at hunting.
