Lyrics of
Mother Natures Son

Mother Natures Son was composed by Paul McCartney (credited to Lennon-McCartney) inspired by a lecture of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi on nature. McCartney wrote the song in Rishikesh, India, during the Beatles trip to study transcendental meditation in 1968.


Born a poor young country boy Mother Nature's son
All day long I'm sitting singing songs for everyone
Sit beside a mountain stream See her waters rise
Listen to the pretty sound of music as she flies

Do do do do do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do
Yeah yeah yeah

Find me in my field of grass Mother Nature's son
Swaying daisies sing a lazy song beneath the sun

Do do do do do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do
Yeah yeah yeah

Oh Mother Nature's Son
*I ignore that part after the humming and end on the “D”, but whatever
