Lyrics
Hey, I am the one son of the sun
Follow the beam of the light
Father of the one
I am the black gold of the sun
I am the black gold of the sun
Light, I am the daughter of the sun
Shadows that light up the day
Dark moon show the way
I am the black gold of the sun
I am the black gold of the sun
I am the tall oak tree
I am the jungle stream
I am the morning sun
Smiling on everyone
I am the shining sea
I am the mountain high
I am a man so free
(I am the black gold of the sun)
Ba-ba-do-ba-do-d-ba
Ba-ba-do-ba-do-d-ba
Ba-ba-do-ba-do-d-ba...
La-la-la-la-laaaaa
La-la-la-la-laaaaa
La-la-la-la-laaaaa...
I am the tall oak tree
I am the jungle stream
I am the morning sun
Smiling on everyone
I am the shining sea
I am the mountain high
I am a man so free
(I am the black gold of the sun)
Ba-ba-do-ba-do-d-ba
Ba-ba-do-ba-do-d-ba
Ba-ba-do-ba-do-d-ba...
La-la-la-la-laaaaa
La-la-la-la-laaaaa
La-la-la-la-laaaaa...
