Shade Tree
Under the shade tree
Laid back with a cane pole
If they ain't bitin'
Still soothes my country soul
And that's where you'll find me
Right at home
Under the shade tree
Where I learned to love
This world around me
The divinity thereof
And all life's blessings
Come from above
And the day always runs to night
Somehow the dark finds its way back to light
And all life's mysteries will be told in time
Until then, I'll never mind
Under the shade tree
Laid back with a cane pole
If they ain't biting
Still soothes my country soul
And that's where you'll find me
Right at home
Under the shade tree
Under the shade tree
Under the shade tree
Under the shade tree
Under the shade tree
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, under the shade tree
