lyrics

there's a tree down by the river where i buried a box
swore i'd never forget her
i've been digging for hours

and i got two big old feet that keep me in line
when my head starts to float
they keep me on the ground
down here with you

and my mother she was strong
with hands of a mule
but i never did learn
how they do what they do

i still got these big old feet
that never learned to walk
and i dreamed so many dreams
but still i went nowhere
just stood still in fear

and my mother she's still strong
a tall sturdy oak
but she just builds walls
around what she don't know
like how to trust at all

there's a tree down by the water
where i buried a box
swore i'd never forget
but now it is lost
