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

    Lester used to have an 8 track of Neil Diamond with this song on it, when I was a kid I would ask him to sing with the song because of his deep voice, and he would do it, I used to love that, Lester this song and your singing it will stay in my heart until I see you again.

    Who is the bass singer? That's about as low as I've heard anyone go on a pop song. Compare to Elvis's "Way Down" with JD Sumner doing the bass line.
