Truckstop Honeymoon - Magnolia Tree

I'm going to plant a Magnolia Tree.

It will grow tall, and w e will grow old.

Then I will dig us a d eep wide hole

The Magnolia Tree

Verse 2

I will go first and then you will join me

There in the shade of the Magnolia Tree

You in a dress, and me in a suit

We will lie together in the tangled root

The Magnolia Tree

Verse 3

And our flesh will rot but our bones will not scatter

The roots of that tree, will bind us together

In life we are married by preacher and church

In death we will be married in rich black earth

The Magnolia Tree

Verse 4

And when we are gone, our children will come

In the poring rain and the burning sun

They will find comfort in our memory

Shade and shelter under that tree

The Magnolia Tree
