Over
The Trees
Lyrics
by Donald R. Weber
Oh, the season's about gone It's awfully hot
Thunderstorms rolling in Day's about shot
Pilots under a tree
Sweatin poison rolling off his skin
Writing a letter to his little girl and his next ofkin
Tellin em hello and how he's been
Sing rum a song, he's that lover, that friend, that
father, that brother Makes a livin over those trees
Havin a fear like no other Or that quiet no one hears
Sweepin round over those trees
One eye on the drift, one eye on the breeze
The old CAT's sittin out on the strip Idlin against
her chop
The loaders have all gone One last load to drop Winds
kind oflow Just before the rain
Wires runnin down that road
Waitin quietly under the strain
Lookin for that CAT comin down the lane
REPEAT CHORUS
A puff of smoke over the trees No one ever sees How
he cried How he died
No one ever sees
Just a puff of smoke over the trees, who's to blame,
who's to blame Watchin that breeze over the trees, no
one ever sees
REPEAT CHORUS
Just watchin for that breeze no one ever sees Over the
trees Over the trees
