Burnin' Bush
Composer(s): Jerry Peters
Performer(s): Earth, Wind & Fire



What does it take to show an illustration 
Of the hurt and the pain of a nation
One glowing look upon a ragged canvas 
Tells the story of our past and present situation 

That old bush just keeps on burning 
Nobody seems to show they're learning 
That old bush just keeps on burning 
I wonder will we ever feel the flame

Our way of life on total exhibition 
Shows the way in which we live of an 
Imperfect nation
This tree of life so far from perfeciton 
Share a little love to improve our situation

That old bush just keeps on burning 
Share the hope for future learning 
I wonder will we ever feel the flame 

Flow of light could really stand a listen 
Bring the dark to the light, show us 
What we've been missing
Not many men are satisfied 
Without no light, there ain't no pride 

There's gonna come a time
Things that are on your mind
Trust and you will find 
Everything in your mind 
True love is here to find 
Simple as number 9 
Multiply you will find 
Peace and love all the time
