El Condor Pasa (If I Could) lyrics

I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail,
yes I would, if I 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 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.
 
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 feel the earth beneath my feet,
yes I would, if I only could, I surely would.

That's not the LP version.
