"I Am The Lion" by Neil Diamond

There was a flood and many poor men were killed. 
And that is why our house is built on the top of a hill. 
The plains are like a friend, why can't we live on them?
And if a flood should come, why can't we run?
I am the lion, bellowing out in the night.

We had a cow, I left it alone to graze. 
And walked to the stream and when I returned, it was stolen
away. 
But now the cow is gone and we don't need a farm. 
We have not one thing they 
would steal away.
I am the lion bellowing out at the night. 
I am the lion bellowing out at the night. 
I am......the lion.
