You’re Not A Tree
© 2021 John V. Reynolds

chorus 1:
You’re not a tree, you don’t have to stand by me
You’re not a tree, so if you’re longin’ to be free
You don’t have to cut your roots, just get up and move your boots
Can’t you see? You’re not a tree.

verse 1:
If you fall and no one’s there, you’ll hear the sound
You’ve got feet and they’re not planted deep in the ground
Use your legs just like me
No need to beg to be free
Can’t you see? You’re not a tree

chorus 2:
You’re not a tree, you don’t have to stand by me
You’re not a tree, so if you’re longin’ to be free
You don’t have to cut your roots, just get up and move your boots
Can’t you see? You’re not a tree.

verse 2:
You don’t need a chain saw to cut to the core
It’s not too hard to see step back and look at the forest
Use your legs just like me
No need to beg to be free
Can’t you see? You’re not a tree

chorus 3:
You’re not a tree, you don’t have to stand by me
You’re not a tree, so if you’re longin’ to be free
You don’t have to cut your roots, just get up and move your boots
Can’t you see? You’re not a tree.
