歌詞

This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the An Evening With John Denver album as a live track, and has also been released on the Some Days Are Diamonds album as a studio version. Because he called the forest brother Because he called the earth his mother They drove him out into the rain Some people even said the boy from the country was insane Because he spoke with fish in the creek He tried to tell us that the animals could speak Who knows, perhaps they do How do you know they don't Just because they've never spoken to you Boy from the country, he left his home when he was young Boy from the country, he loves the sun He tried to tell us that we should love the land We turned our heads and laughed And we did not understand Sometimes I think that the boy from the country Is the only one who sees Because the boy from the country Doesn't want to see the forest for the trees Boy from the country, he left his home when he was young Boy from the country, he loves the sun Words and music by Michael Murphy
