El Condor Pasa

(paul simon/jorge milchberg)

I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail.
Yes i would.
If i could,
I surely would.

I'd rather be a hammer than a nail.
Yes i would.
If i could,
I surely would.

Chorus
Away, i'd rather sail away
Like a swan that's here and gone
A man grows older every day
It gives the world
Its saddest sound,
Its saddest sound.

I'd rather be a forest than a street.
Yes i would.
If i could,
I surely would.

I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet,
Yes i would.
If i could,
I surely would.

Chorus
