Lyrics

25 Trees
There's 25 trees on the side of the hill
They're coming in straight taking their fill
They're fillin' in the space where the big pine stood
They're claiming his sun for their own wood
And I've got some time to sort things out
Pull honeysuckle vine read books on the shelf
There's one or two I've never read
And more than a dozen gonna read again
Like Blue Highways and The Land Remembers
Black Elk Speaks and Fire On The Mountain
Rural Free and The Contrary Farmer
A Home in The Country, and Bound For Glory
Irish Folk Tales as told by Yeats
A Country Year, At Nature's Pace
The Grapes of Wrath and Jayber Crow
Wilderness Plots and The Ohio
It's just 25 feet from the 25 trees
To the old bookshelf and the birds and the bees
That fly between these words I love
And land on the branches of the trees on the bluff
They've all started living since I've been here
I've been watching them grow, keeping things clear
Like the wild rose we call the sticker bush
And the grape vine that'll choke em good
They're coming up strong and making their stand
We'll share our lives on this piece of land
And they'll watch me like I watch them
And they're born to rustle and bend in the wind
There's five Pin Oaks and five Wild Cherries
Two Redbuds and one Mulberry
A Black Walnut, two Sugar Maples
A Dogwood and a Honey Locust
Two Tulip Poplars the state tree
A Chestnut, a Sycamore, and a Beech
And two Catalpas to round out things
They're a good old-fashioned tree
