Artist/Band: OMC
Lyrics for Song: Land Of Plenty
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - OMC



A long white cloud ancient land

Open field sacred ground

Bays of plenty, the bluff, the cape

Streaming sands, boiling place



White water swells, bridges of old

Deep clear nights, open shores

Winter season brings out the best

Summer nights in Auckland



And my father used to say

"Oh, we came to this land of plenty

And we came to this land of hope

We came to this land of good times

And we came to this land of love

Oh, we came to this land of love"



Mountain range, snow peak tops

Fresh water stream, Fouveax strait

Open caves that glow supreme

Black sand shores, lion rock



Monuments, mission bay

Cuba street, Vulcan lane

Westerly winds, sun and rains

Beautiful days in the Wellington



And my father used to say

"Oh, we came to this land of plenty

And we came to this land of hope

We came to this land of good times

And we came to this land of love

Oh, we came to this land of love"



Desert roads, Mt. Ruapehu

The piston ferry decides your fate

Oval square, civic center

And Nelson Gorge where we lost a mate



Oamaru via Timaru

Winding roads, sudden bends

Lake taupe, Bethel's beach

A word to the wise increase the peace



And my father used to say

"Oh, we came to this land of plenty

And we came to this land of hope

We came to this land of good times

And we came to this land of love

Oh, we came to this land of love"



Oh, we came to this land of plenty

And we came to this land of hope

We came to this land of good times

And we came to this land of love

Oh, we came to this land of love
