Lyrics

Hey, I am the one son of the sun Follow the beam of the light Father of the one I am the black gold of the sun I am the black gold of the sun Light, I am the daughter of the sun Shadows that light up the day Dark moon show the way I am the black gold of the sun I am the black gold of the sun I am the tall oak tree I am the jungle stream I am the morning sun Smiling on everyone I am the shining sea I am the mountain high I am a man so free (I am the black gold of the sun) Ba-ba-do-ba-do-d-ba Ba-ba-do-ba-do-d-ba Ba-ba-do-ba-do-d-ba... La-la-la-la-laaaaa La-la-la-la-laaaaa La-la-la-la-laaaaa... I am the tall oak tree I am the jungle stream I am the morning sun Smiling on everyone I am the shining sea I am the mountain high I am a man so free (I am the black gold of the sun) Ba-ba-do-ba-do-d-ba Ba-ba-do-ba-do-d-ba Ba-ba-do-ba-do-d-ba... La-la-la-la-laaaaa La-la-la-la-laaaaa La-la-la-la-laaaaa...
