Music and Lyrics by Newell Hendricks

lyrics

Looking out on slopes and hills
Forest covers the land
Only from this granite knoll
Can be seen the valley below

Once the slopes were shorn
To make fields for the family cow
Stones moved to the edges
To make ready for the plow
Then looking out on slopes and hills
Grasses covered the land
One could see from anywhere
The slopes and hills and valleys below

Soon there will be views again
The valley will be bare
Forest fed into the fires
Fueling our desires
Then looking out on slopes and hills
Fences scarring the land
Dividing food from biofuel
On slopes and hills and valley below

But this will be a passing phase
The trees will grow once more
I wonder who, or maybe what
Will be standing here
Looking out on slopes and hills
Forest covering the land
Only from this granite knoll
Will be seen the valley below
