Lyrics

When she's on her best behavior

When Mother Earth is behaving positively or well

Don't be tempted by her favors

Don't be enticed or tempted by her offerings or advantages


Never turn your back on Mother Earth

Always stay attentive and respectful towards Mother Earth


Towns are hurled from A to B

Towns or places are moved forcibly or rapidly from one location to another

By arms that looked so smooth to me

By forces or influences that seemed harmless or appealing initially


Never turn your back on Mother Earth

Reiteration of the importance of not disregarding or neglecting Mother Earth

Never turn your back on Mother Earth

Emphasizing the crucial nature of staying connected to and respecting Mother Earth


Three days and two nights away from my friends

Being away from friends for a short period of time

Amen to anything that brings a quick return

Agreement or approval for anything that enables a swift return to friends

To my friends, to my friends

Expressing the desire to return to friends


Never turn your back on Mother Earth

Reiteration of the importance of not disregarding or neglecting Mother Earth


Well, I'll admit I was unfaithful

Admitting a lack of fidelity or loyalty previously

But from now on I'll be more faithful

Commitment to being more faithful or loyal moving forward


Never turn your back on Mother

Repeating the importance of not disregarding or neglecting Mother Earth

Never turn your back on Mother

Reiterating the significance of staying connected to and respecting Mother Earth

Never turn your back on Mother Earth

Emphasizing the crucial nature of staying attentive and respectful towards Mother Earth
