El Condor Pasa

Simon and Garfunkel: El Condor Pasa


i'd rather be
a sparrow
than a snail
yes i would
if i could
i surely would
i'd rather be
a hammer
than a nail
yes i would
if i only could
i surely would

away, i'd rather
sail away
like a swan
that's here
and gone
a man gets
tied to the ground
he gives the world
its saddest sound
its saddest sound

i'd rather be
a forest
than a street
yes i would
if i could
i surely would
i'd rather feel
the earth
beneath my feet
yes i would
if i only could
i surely would
