Chop the Tree

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I, I want to chop the tree Carry the wood and burn the leaves And when the job is done Well then this old boy will have had his fun [Chorus] Hello, hello hollow tree I've come to read your eulogy [Verse 2] And I want, I want to plant and sow And make my garden grow And if my garden dies Well then this old boy will have feared no flies [Chorus] So long, so long sleepy bear I've turned your bed into a chair [Bridge] And the last I saw, she was at the station Boarding three bags for only a week's vacation If I see her again, it will be the end Oh, oh
