Neil Diamond - I Am the Lion lyrics

There was a flood
And many poor men were killed
And that is why our house
Is built on the top of a hill

The plains are like a friend
Why can't we live on them
And if a flood should come why can't we run

I am the lion bellowing out in the night
We had a cow i left it alone to graze
And walked to the stream and when I returned
It was stolen away but now the cow is gone
And we don't need a farm
We have not one thing they would steal away

I am the lion bellowing out at the night
I Am the lion
Bellowing out in the night i am
The lion
