Cottonwood Tree Lyrics
There's a tree a-growing on the hillside
With a limb for all the boys to see
And the wind that's tying to its branches
Says leave another man belongin' see
So pass the jug and we'll drink once more
To the men wherever they may be
That swung in the wind on a rope from a limb
Limb of a cottonwood tree
There was men caught a-thieving horses
Heaven rest their souls from up above
Some stole the charms from a woman's arms
Devil take the man who steals love
So pass the jug and we'll drink once more
To the men wherever they may be
That swung in the wind on a rope from a limb
Limb of a cottonwood tree
When that tree was a-dying on the hillside
All the boys rode up there to the draw
And the wind that's tying to its branches
Says "never, never laugh at the law"
So pass the jug and we'll drink once more
To the men wherever they may be
That swung in the wind on a rope from a limb
Limb of a cottonwood tree
Limb of a cottonwood tree
With a limb for all the boys to see
And the wind that's tying to its branches
Says leave another man belongin' see
To the men wherever they may be
That swung in the wind on a rope from a limb
Limb of a cottonwood tree
Heaven rest their souls from up above
Some stole the charms from a woman's arms
Devil take the man who steals love
To the men wherever they may be
That swung in the wind on a rope from a limb
Limb of a cottonwood tree
All the boys rode up there to the draw
And the wind that's tying to its branches
Says "never, never laugh at the law"
To the men wherever they may be
That swung in the wind on a rope from a limb
Limb of a cottonwood tree
