Wood and Stone Lyrics

Raised at the foot of a hill down that one dirt lane
Raised where the shade of a maple tree'll run a hole right through a
name
Wood and stone a house a home
for the trials of our family tree
all I know is that wood and stone'll be the better part of me

Played in the yard with the garden hose bathing suits and trembling
knees
Mothert and fathers voices drowning out the sound of the summer breeze

Wood and stone a house a home
for the trials of our family tree
all I know is that wood and stone'll be the better part of me

Apples in the apple tree for the sauce that grandma made
Apples in the hand for the horse I'm shaking in the shade of its
thoroughbred mane
Wood and stone a house a home
for the trials of our family tree
all I know is that wood and stone'll be the better part of me

Christmas night Holy night mother loves us with her life
Daddy loved us too but I'll never know if he loved the outcome of his
life
Wood and stone a house a home
for the trials of our family tree
all I know is that wood and stone'll be the better part of me

Wood and stone a house a home
for the trials of our family tree
all I know is that wood and stone'll be the better part of me

Wood and stone a house a home
for the trials of our family tree
all I know is that wood and stone'll be the better part of me
All I know is that wood and stone'll be the better part of me
