One Drop/Shakti Love Chant, lyrics
by Diane Patterson

One drop of water, is that all that’s gonna be left
Who’s gonna get to drink it, can’t you see it,
All the big men at the table, fighting over one, one drop of water
When all the rivers are long since gone
Spirit of eagle is looking on, spirit of eagle, Spirit!
Abundance, deep river carve the canyon
Freedom, and eagle soars over lush life
Justice, a balance in this life
Life follows death answers life calls death
A balance in this life
May the wild winds blow, let the wild water flow,
I return to let this passion in my burn
A giant whale dives deep in crystal water clarity
Endless ocean, breathless motion, carry me
Jazz and blues conceive, blending aural ecstacy
Mystical drumming, shakti woman, marry me
