Lyrics

[Verse 1]

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

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

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

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 3]

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

[Chorus]

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
