Version 2 of the lyrics

Beside a singin' mountain stream where the willow grew

Beside a singin' mountain stream,

Where the silver leaf of maple sparkled in the mornin' dew

Where the willow grew,

I braided twigs of willows made a string of buckeye beads

Where the silver leaf of maple,

But flesh and blood needs flesh and blood and you're the one I need

Sparkled in the mornin' dew,

Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood and you're the one I need

I braided twigs of willows,

Made a string of buckeye beads.

I leaned against the bark of birch and I breathed the honey dew

But flesh and blood needs flesh and blood,

I saw a north-bound flock of geese against a sky of baby blue

And you're the one I need.

Beside the lily pads I carved a whistle from a reed

Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood,

Mother nature's quite a lady but you're the one I need

And you're the one I need.

Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood and you're the one I need

I leaned against a bark of birch,

A cardinal sang just for me and I thanked him for the song

And I breathed the honey dew.

Then the sun went slowly down the west and I had to move along

I saw a northbound flock of geese,

These were some of the things on which my mind and spirit feed

Against a sky of baby blue.

But flesh and blood needs flesh and blood and you're the one I need

Beside the lily pads,

Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood and you're the one I need

I carved a whistle from a reed.

Mother Nature's quite a lady,

So when the day was ended I was still not satisfied

But you're the one I need.

For I knew ev'rything I touched would wither and would die

Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood,

And love is all that will remain and grow from all these seed

And you're the one I need.

Mother nature's quite a lady but you're the one I need

Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood and you're the one I need

[Instrumental break.]

A cardinal sang just for me,

And I thanked him for the song.

Then the sun went slowly down the west,

And I had to move along.

These were some of the things,

On which my mind and spirit feed.

But flesh and blood needs flesh and blood,

And you're the one I need.

Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood,

And you're the one I need.

So when this day was ended,

I was still not satisfied.

For I knew ev'rything I touched,

Would wither and would die.

And love is all that will remain,

And grow from all these seeds.

Mother Nature's quite a lady,

But you're the one I need.

Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood,

And you're the one I need.
