If you can't answer my questions nine
Sing ninety-nine and ninety
Oh, you're not God's, you're one of mine
And the crow flies over the white oak tree
Oh, what is higher than the tree?
Sing ninety-nine and ninety
And what is deeper than the sea?
And the crow flies over the white oak tree
Oh, Heaven is higher than a tree
Sing ninety-nine and ninety
And love is deeper than the sea
And the crow flies over the white oak tree
Oh, what is whiter than the milk?
Sing ninety-nine and ninety
And what is softer than the silk?
And the crow flies over the white oak tree
Oh, snow is whiter than the milk
Sing ninety-nine and ninety
And down is softer than the silk
And the crow flies over the white oak tree
Oh, what is louder than the horn?
Sing ninety-nine and ninety
And what is sharper than the thorn?
And the crow flies over the white oak tree
Oh, thunder's louder than the horn
Sing ninety-nine and ninety
And hunger's sharper than the thorn
And the crow flies over the white oak tree
Oh, what is heavier than the lead?
Sing ninety-nine and ninety
And what is better than the bread?
And the crow flies over the white oak tree
Oh, grief is heavier than the lead
Sing ninety-nine and ninety
God's blessing's better than the bread
And the crow flies over the white oak tree
Now you have answered my questions nine
Sing ninety-nine and ninety
Oh, you are God's, you're none of mine
And the crow flies over the white oak tree
