On God's green earth the golden sun shines down
On God's green earth the fields are red and brown
When the silver rain of springtime brings the miracle of birth
There's room for every color here on God's green earth
In God's blue sky sometimes the grey clouds blow
And storms may rise from the land that lies below
When all the different colors forget each other's worth
They clash with one another here on God's green earth
So God made the night took away the light
Made the colors fade into a single shade
And God made the day took the night away
So we all could see how it was meant to be
On God's green earth on God's green earth
From Birmingham to Johannesburg though they may be different
Let them shine for all they're worth there's room for every color
Here on God's green earth
So God made the night...
On God's green earth the fields are red and brown
On God's green earth the there's room for every color
On God's green earth from Birmingham to Johannesburg
On God's green earth
