Feed the Tree

This old man I've talked about

Broke his own heart, poured it in the ground

Big red tree grew up and out

Throws up its leaves, spins round and round

I know all this and more

So take your hat off when you're talkin' to me

And be there when I feed the tree

This little squirrel I used to be

Slammed her bike down the stairs

They put silver where her teeth had been

Baby silver tooth, she grins and grins

I know all this and more

So take your hat off, boy, when you're talkin' to me

And be there when I feed the tree

Take your hat off, boy, when you're talkin' to me

And be there when I feed the tree

This old man I used to be

Spins around, around, around the tree

Silver baby, come to me

I'll only hurt you in my dreams

I know all this and I know all this and

I know all this and more

So take your hat off, boy, when you're talkin' to me

And be there when I feed the tree

Take your hat off when you're talkin' to me

And be there when I feed the tree
