eastbound jesus - hawk lyrics

[chorus 1]
i cut wood for a living
well up here in the woods for n0body to see
it ain’t much, trees keep on giving
i make a little money and that’s alright by me

[verse 1]
at the end of the week
i’m coming down off the hill
loaded up truck heading down
to the river and the new sawmill
i save a little money for gas
save a little money to cover my bills
take a little down to the liquor store
head back up the hill

[chorus 2]
well, i walked up here alone
when she walked out about fifteen years go
i thought i’d find a place to breathe
these tall oak trees don’t seem to bother me

[verse 2]
when the sun goes down
i clean and put the saw away
that’s the only time i have to think
about things if i had stayed
i sit and drink a beer or two
strum a couple chords and whistle a tune
laugh out loud at the people downtown
’cause that’s what’s there to do
[chorus 3]
oh, i’m just a simple man
i get by off my work on the land
i’m tried and true as the day she went away
well, up here cutting wood is all i can do

[chorus 3]
oh, i’m just a simple man
i get by off my work on the land
i’m tried and true as the day she went away
well, up here cutting wood is all i can do

[chorus 4]
i work alone for a reason
i can move at my pace and whistle my favorite tunes
and other folks say i’m crazy
if anything went wrong we’d never know what happened to you

[verse 3]
those tall oak trees
one day got the best of me
barber chair cut and a tall tree falling
caught me right below the knees
i knew that my days was through
what the people downtown had said was true
but i made my peace as i whistled my tune
that’s all that i could do
