I Am The Lion - Neil Diamond

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
