Hippy girl 
Please don't change a thing
Change isn't everything
And dreaming is something - hippy girl

There's a curse in this world 
That money brings
And a big idea 
That fame is everything
You're far and away now
Richer than kings and queens
You know love 
And you give everyone

Hippy girl 
Please don't change a thing
Wear your hat girl and your friendship rings
Hippy girl
Blue-eyes-sallow-skin
You look ahead now 
Not at fashions whims - hippy girl

You're from a different planet 
That must be tough to leave
The planet of mercy 
The planet of make-believe
One day I took you 
To a castle so high
We got through the bridge 
You said this is the happiest day 
Of my life

Hippy girl please don't change a thing
Change isn't everything
And dreaming is something hippy girl

I'm away with your
I'm away in your
I'm away to your world

I'm away with your
I'm away in your
I'm away to your world

Hippy girl 
Jump on into the pool
Don't let anyone tell you 
You need rules
Hippy girl 
I'll smoke your pipe
Of peace outside your tent
We'll watch the smoke rings go
Up in the wind - hippy girl
Up and into this wind - hippy girl
