Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do-ooh
[Verse 2]
Do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do-ooh
[Verse 3]
Whenever my head starts to hurt
Before it goes from bad to feelin' worst
I turn off my phone, I get down low and put my hands in the dirt
I try to stop the world from movin' so fast
Try to get a grip on where I'm at
And to simplify this dizzy life
[Verse 4]
And get my feet in the grass
I'm goin' back to the earth
I'm goin' back to the earth
I'm goin' back to work
I'm goin' back to the earth
[Verse 5]
Do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do-ooh
[Verse 6]
The only explanation for a high rise
It must be that everybody wants to get high
And move on up to a deluxe apartment in the sky
Well the higher we go, the taller we grow
We lose sight of our land below
You can have your place up in outer space
'Cause my home is where my food is grown
[Verse 7]
I'm goin' back to the earth
I'm goin' back to the earth
I'm goin' back to work
I'm goin' back to the earth
I'm goin' back
(Back to the earth)
Do, do, do, do, do, do
(Back to work)
Do, do, do, do, do, do
(Back to the earth)
Alright lets get the rest and go over this bridge
[Verse 8]
We are animals (We are animals)
We are wild (We are wild)
Ah, it started with a motions at the bottom of the ocean
Now we are swingin' from top of trees
Ah, we are animals (We are animals)
We are wild (We are wild)
And to truly be forgiven we must all get back to livin'
With the land in harmony
I'm goin' back to the earth
I'm goin' back to the earth
[Verse 9]
I'm goin' back to work
I'm goin' back to the earth
Mmm-yeah (Back to the earth)
Do, do, do, do, do, do
I'm goin' back (Back to the earth)
I'm goin' back to work
I'm goin' back to, two more times around
(Back to the earth)
Do, do, do, do, do, do, yeah
(Back to the earth)
Do, do, do, do, do, do
(Back to work)
Do, do, do, do, do, do
(Back to the earth) One more time around the world
(Back to the earth)
Do, do, do, do, do, do
(Back to the earth)
Do, do, do, do, do, do
(Back to work)
Do, do, do, do, do, do, here it comes
(Back to the earth)
Do, do, do, do, do, do
