Song Lyrics

Out in the woods.
There was a tree.
The prettiest tree.
That you ever did see.

Well, the tree was in a hole,
and the hole was in the ground.
And the green grass grew all around, all around.
And the green grass grew all around.

And on this tree.
There was a branch.
The prettiest branch.
That you ever did see.

Well, the branch was on the tree,
and the tree was in the hole,
and the hole was in the ground.
And the green grass grew all around, all around.
And the green grass grew all around.

And on this branch.
There was a nest.
The prettiest nest.
That you ever did see.

Well, the nest was on the branch,
and the branch was on the tree,
and the tree was in the hole,
and the hole was in the ground.
And the green grass grew all around, all around.
And the green grass grew all around.

And in this nest.
There was an egg.
The prettiest egg.
That you ever did see.

Well, the egg was in the nest,
and the nest was on the branch,
and the branch was on the tree,
and the tree was in the hole,
and the hole was in the ground.
And the green grass grew all around, all around.
And the green grass grew all around.

And in this egg.
There was a bird.
The prettiest bird.
That you ever did see.

Well, the bird was in the egg,
and the egg was in the nest,
and the nest was on the branch,
and the branch was on the tree,
and the tree was in the hole,
and the hole was in the ground.
And the green grass grew all around, all around.
And the green grass grew all around.

And the green grass grew all around, all around.
And the green grass grew all around.
