nature boy
you feel the pieces of broken earth between your toes
and yet no one knows
of your simultaneous sorrow and joy

nature boy
with wind blowing through your hair
no one knows you're there

nature boy
sitting in the sun
escaping on the run
your guitar in your hand
with your body in the sand

oh, but nature boy
can't you see?
there's a whole wide world out there
beyond you and me
there are birds and rocks and babbling brooks
and so many people and creatures to meet
we aren't all crooks, nature boy
you needn't be so coy
so why don't you drop by
and say hello?
