She's my knotty pine

She leans with the wind

She cries turpentine

Sometimes she nettles me

But I don't mind

Only now and then

When her branches lean beneath the snow



She's knotty but nice

Reaching for the sky

She don't like snow 'n ice

To leave things as they stand

Is my advice

She's been good to me

So I tend to go there when I can



She's my knotty pine

Such a pretty scene

She tries to be kind

She gives birds a home

And shelters them

In her coat of green

She's as green as evergreen can be



She's a real delight

When little breezes call

To ruffle up her skin

All her sap runs free

And sticks to me

Hidden deep within

I will be her slave eternally



She's my knotty pine

She leans with the wind

She crys turpentine

Sometimes she nettles me

But I don't mind

Only now and then

When her branches lean beneath the snow
