simon & garfunkel's version of 'el condor pasa'

I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail
Yes I would
If I could,
I surely would

I'd rather be a hammer than a nail
Yes I would
If I only could,
I surely would

Away, I'd rather sail away
Like a swan that's here and gone
A man gets tied up to the ground
He gives the world its saddest sound,
its saddest sound

I'd rather be a forest than a street
Yes I would
If I could,
I surely would

I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet
Yes I would
If I only could,
I surely would
