Laura Nyro - Brown Earth Lyrics

Artist: Laura Nyro

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: R&B

  • Songwriters: Laura Nyro

Morning, come to the windows of the street
Selling red watermelon, five cents a piece

Merry boat on the river, freedom
Fresh dreams to deliver, freedom

Over and over and over
I call out your name

God standing on the brown earth
Get up, mama hollers
Shooflies in the doorway

White doves gonna come today
White doves gonna come today

Oh, what a morning, I feel so good
Oh, what a morning of brotherhood

Hold me by the light
Kittens run the neighborhood through
Ragamuffin boys

All the world is new by the light of day
Give with your heart and love will come to you
Kids come in all shapes and colors
To the cool morning dew

Merry boat on the river, freedom
Fresh dreams to deliver, freedom

Over and over and over
And over and over and over

God standing on the brown earth
Lovelight in the morning
Shooflies in the doorway

White doves gonna come today
White doves gonna come today
White doves gonna come today

White doves gonna come today
White doves gonna come today
White doves gonna come today
