Perry Como
- El condor pasa lyrics

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

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

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 it's saddest sound,
It's saddest sound.. hmm.

< instrumental break >.

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

I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet,

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 it's saddest sound,
It's saddest sound..

< instrumental break >.

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

Yes I would..
