lyrics

If I were a tree, I'd be a Sonora pine standing tall.
If I were a leaf, I'd be a cottonwood in New Mexico in the fall.
If I were a fish, I'd be a rainbow trout swimming along.
If I were a bird, I'd cry the redtail hawk song.
If I were a friend like you, if I were a friend like you, if I were a friend like you, I'd be telling you, just be you.
If I were a horse, I'd be a wild mustang running free.
If I were a flower, I'd open up to all of the bees.
If I were a house, I'd be a cabin with an old wood stove.
If I were a cactus, I'd be a saquaro en Mexico.
-chours-
If I were a river, I'd be the North fork of the Tuolumne.
If I were a wild goose, I'd have a whole flock and they'd be following me.
If I were a beach, I'd be in Humboldt county.
If I were a frog, I'd sing to the tree, about how I never wanted to be, anywhere else but here under his leaves. You are a dear friend to me.
