surely there is a mine for silver and a place where
they refine gold
iron is taken from the hills and copper is taken from
the ground
(chorus)
so where is the place of understanding and where can
wisdom be found?
whoo...oo...ooo...
the bird of prey has gazzed upon it nor falcons i have
seen
it's never been passed by the fierce lion or trolled
upon by earthly beast
(chorus)
so where is the place of understanding and where can
wisdom be found?
whoo...oo...ooo...
pure gold can not be tradded for it
please don't mention crystal wear
the topez of africa can not equal it and
fine pearls fail to compare
so where is the place of understanding and where can
wisdom be found?
wisdom can be found in the fear of the Lord and
understanding knows who depart from evil
(2x's)
whoo...oo...ooo...
