Ol' Branch

Just an ol' branch

That fell from the tree

Just a broken ol' branch

Tryin' to be free

A farmer took ol' branch

And he made him a plough

He ploughed up the ground

And he planted some corn

But corn's not the fruit

From which branch was born

Just an ol' branch

That fell from the tree

Just a goofy ol' branch

That tried to be free

A man took ol' branch

And he built him a house

He made him a chair

And he made him a bed

But a bed ain't the lady

To which branch was wed

Just an ol' branch

That fell from the tree

Just a broken ol' stick

That tried to be free

A man took ol' branch

Gonna build him a fire

He said, this ol' branch

Looks dead to me

But God loved ol' branch

So He reached down

Put him back on the tree

Just an ol' branch

Tryin' to be free
