BREAKING NEW GROUND

Writers: 

Gerry Goffin, Carole King, and Richard Manuel

Lyrics: 

Why does anyone want to court the reaper
When the valley caves in, the road gets steeper
Better stop it now before we get in deeper
Everybody's just a human being
We all got different ways of seeing

Ain't nothin' like breaking new ground
Ain't nothin' like hearing new sound
Stop it now 'stead of staring it down
Life is such a good thing to live around

Like a farmer who's out there pitching hay
He can't wait for the time to ditch the day
But then he's got to look every which way
Everybody's just a human being
We all got different ways of seeing

Ain't nothin' like breaking new ground
Ain't nothin' like hearing new sound
Stop it now 'stead of staring it down
Life is such a good thing to live around

Every country's got a different culture
Don't have to be prey on each other
Like we were vultures
I just wanna be your friend
I don't want to insult you

Ain't nothin' like breaking new ground
Ain't nothin' like hearing new sound
Stop it now 'stead of staring it down
Life is such a good thing to live around
