She's my knotty pine   She leans with the wind   She cries turpentine   Sometimes she nettles me   But I don't mind   Only now and then   When her branches lean beneath the snow   She's knotty but nice   Reaching for the sky   She don't like snow 'n ice   To leave things as they stand   Is my advice   She's been good to me   So I tend to go there when I can      She's my knotty pine   Such a pretty scene   She tries to be kind   She gives birds a home   And shelters them   In her coat of green   She's as green as evergreen can be      She's a real delight   When little breezes call   To ruffle up her skin   All her sap runs free   And sticks to me   Hidden deep within   I will be her slave eternally      She's my knotty pine   She leans with the wind   She crys turpentine   Sometimes she nettles me   But I don't mind   Only now and then   When her branches lean beneath the snow
