Tall Oak Tree lyrics

Artist  : Bobby Bare 
Song : Tall Oak Tree
 
There was a tall oak tree that loved a bubblin'
brook

And the bubblin' brook loved a mountain high

And the mountain high loved the sky above

The creator looked down and saw everything was
loved loved loved

Then he took a bone and a piece of mud

He made a man and a woman to be flash and
blood

Then along came a devil up bottom ground

He tempted woman and that's spred sin all around
all around all around

If she'd've left that apple on the apple tree

There'd be no tears and sorrow we'd live
eternaly

And then along came man to burn the oak tree
down

And now the bubblin' brook is a solid ground

And the mountain high don't stand so high

And there's a cloud of smoke that covers up a
clear blue sky

There was a tall oak tree there was a tall oak
tree there was a tall oak tree
