The Tree, The Ship and Me
This tree’s got a lot of arms
That hold me tight when I’m alone
Sometimes the tree she sets me free
The wind lifts the leaves into a sail
I hold on tight to the rail
In the tree, on the ship, on the sea
I’m never really quite alone
There’s mermaids, whales and chanty songs
And a million stars that keep me company
We sing together with the wind
We sail to lands we’ve never been
In the tree, on the ship on the sea
Some people see a mighty oak
Leaves waving in the breeze
My sea legs feel a ship afloat
Sailing the seven seas
She’s broad and stout, she’s grand and fine
She’s become the very best friend of mine
The tree, the ship and me
Sometimes we hit a hurricane
the ship she’s tight in wind and rain
We sail past the sharks and pirates too
With the hurdy-gurdy, we make up songs
about the time when we’ll be home
In the tree, on the ship, on the sea
Some people see a mighty oak
Leaves waving in the breeze
My sea legs feel a ship afloat
Sailing the seven seas
She’s broad and stout, she’s grand and fine
She’s become the very best friend of mine
The tree, the ship and me
One summer night beneath the stars
Wonderin’ just where I are
I felt akin to a pirate on the sea, harr
as my stomach growls and hunger nears
I hear a call, it’s supper dear
In the tree, on the ship, on the sea
We eat our grub, the galley’s closed
The sun has gone to sleep
The sails are low, we batten down
‘til our next sail at sea
She’s broad and stout, she’s’ grand and fine
She’s become the best friend of mine
The tree, the ship and me
The tree, the ship and me
The tree, the ship and me
