Break a Branch

Break a branch From a tall oak tree Walk that stick 'Til the bark comes free Devil on my shoulder sayin' time to go Hard to stay home with the walk sweet talkin' Three strong limbs Are all I need Legs pursue The branch will lead Standin' like a statue almost eighteen years Walls are closin' in but the walk's sweet talkin' Time's a thing (time's a thing) There's no need for (there's no need for) Lock your watch (lock your watch) In the dresser drawer (in the dresser drawer) Spring, summer, never mind who's to say? You forget the day with the walk sweet talkin' Got myself a theory (got myself a theory) Slowly but surely (slowly but surely) We curve to match the surface of the earth Every step your toes bend Every day your feet bow Curve to match the surface of the earth Look you made a footprint (Look you made a footprint) Where no one else has landed First to tell the story of the earth Break a branch (break a branch) From a tall oak tree Walk that stick (walk that stick) 'Til the bark comes free Devil on my shoulder sayin' time to go Hard to stay home with the walk sweet talkin' The walk sweet talkin'
