text: Hot winds and hunger cries--Ethiopia
  Flies in your babies eyes--Ethiopia
  Walking sticks on burning plains
  Betrayed by politics
  Abandoned by the rains
  On and on--the human need
  On and on--the human greed profanes
  Ethiopia--Ethiopia--Ethiopia
  Your top soil flies away--Ethiopia
  We pump ours full of poison spray--Ethiopia
  Between the brown skies and sprinkling lawns
  I hear the whine of chain saws
  Hacking rain forests down
  On and on--insanities
  On and on--Short sighted greed abounds
  Ethiopia--Ethiopia--Ethiopia
  Little garden planet-oasis in space
  Some hearts hurt--they can hardly stand it
  Famine phantoms at the garden gates
  Ethiopia--Ethiopia--Ethiopia
  Every Sunday on T.V.--Ethiopia
  You suffer with such dignity--Ethiopia
  A T.V. star with a P.R. smile
  Calls your baby it while strolling
  Through your tragic trials
  On and on--stupidity
  On and on--the basic needs are defiled
  Good air--good water--good earth
  Ethiopia--Ethiopia--Ethiopia
  Little garden planet--oasis in space
  Some hearts hurt--they can hardly stand the waste
  Ethiopia--Ethiopia--Ethiopia
