Story Behind the Song
"Goodbye Mother Earth" was written for all of us who have a sincere dislike for nuclear destruction.The lyrics written by Robert Blythe of the band Just Freedom and recorded by the same, depict a stark, "real" view of things to come if we as a people allow the current course of events go unchecked.The song was actually written 22 yrs. ago in reflection of the cuban crisis incident in the early 1960's and was unshelved and recorded at the onset of talks and rumors of war in IRAQ.Gbme was recorded in Nashville, Tenn. at Hideout Productions on a mackey 24 channel digital system and all tracks were used in the production along with 8 virtual tracks.Most of the "war sound tracks" are actual sounds of war from the "Gulf War"
Lyrics
Picture all the people running wild out in the street
the power hungry generals,pushing buttons from their seats.
one minute there's a blinding flash, the next you feel the heat.
and all the people who were standing,now are classified deceased.
goodbye mother earth,so long sister freedom
we're casting our world into the sun
there won't be no tomorrow,all the yesterdays are gone
the saddest part of all i fear is that now the beast has won.
in the end it just won't matter,who was right or wrong
if you think i'm just mistaken,ask the child whose folks are gone
goodbye mother earth,so long sister freedom we're casting our world into the sun
goodbye mother earth,so long sister freedom we're casting our world into the sun.
10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 (nuclear explosion)
what was it like seeing trees on a hill
and climbing their branches,tell me how did it feel
was the sky really blue,could you play in the rain
before the missles came down and took away all those things
goodbye mother earth,so long sister freedom we're casting our world into the sun
goodbye mother earth,so long sister freedom
we're casting our world into the sun
were there whales in the oceans did the fish swim the seas
before the missles came down,were there little boys dreams
what was it like hearing little birds sing before hell came around and burned away all their wings
goodbye mother earth,so long sister freedom we're casting our world into the sun
goodbye mother earth,so long sister freedom we're casting our world into the sun
ooooooooooooo,oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
