I climbed the Redwood Hill

'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

The things that I am

I could not change for any man



I tried to comfort her

Ah, but she would not be still

And how the rain did fall

As I found my way back down the Redwood Hill



Crying though she was

She did speak these tender words

The things that I am

I would not change for any man



I tried to comfort her

Ah, but she would not be still

I'll not forget that day

When Mother Nature cried on Redwood Hill



I'll not forget that day

When Mother Nature cried on Redwood Hill
