lyrics

I climbed the Redwood Hills
Twas on a rainy day
To rise above the throng
And talk with Mother Nature for a while

She told me of her love
For the children in her trust
And of her grave concern
For the likes of you and me and us

Crying though she was
She did speak these tender words
"Things that I am
I can not change for any man"

I tried to comfort her
But she would not be still
And as the rains did fall
I found my way back down the Redwood Hills

Crying though she was
She did speak these tender words
"Things that I am
I can not change for any man"

I tried to comfort her
But she would not be still
I'll not forget the day
When Mother Nature cried on Redwood Hills
I'll not forget the day
When Mother Nature cried on Redwood Hills
