Music on Mondays


Hopefully this song will not be taken down by You Tube ... which seems to happen quite often.
There are some women with a voice so beautiful, I could fall in love just by listing to them perform. Vanessa Williams knocks me out every time.

You think you own whatever land you land on
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim




But I know evry rock and tree and creature
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name





You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you





But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew you never knew





Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned ?






Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain ?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind ?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind ?








Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
Come taste the sun-sweet berries of the earth





Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once, never wonder what they're worth






The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
The heron and the otter are my friends




In a cirle, in a hoop that never ends







Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or let the eagle tell you there he's been







Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain ?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind ?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind ?








How high does the sycamore grow ?
If you cut it down, then youll never know






And youll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
For whether we are white or copper-skinned






We just sing with all the voices of the mountain
Need to paint with all the colors of the wind
You can own the earth and still





All youll own is earth until
You can paint with all colors of the wind
