about

The tale of a boy and his oak.

Written by Jakob Frazier, Tim Frazier, and Adam Guthrie

lyrics

Oak tree, oak tree
Oh how I love thee
You are my best friend
I spend my days
Beneath your shade
Leaves swaying in the wind

The Alabama summer left me sweating through my clothes
Only when I sat beneath your leaves did I feel cold

Oak tree, oak tree
Oh how I love thee
You are my best friend
I spend my days
Beneath your shade
Leaves swaying in the wind

One autumn day, my Pops walked up
A chainsaw in his hand
My tears fell as he cut you down
I could not understand

Oak tree, oak tree
Oh how I love thee
I can’t believe you’re gone
It makes me mad
The way my dad
Turned you to a log

On one December night the temperature hit 33
My dad walked in from the front porch, and I said “Can it be?”

He stacked some wood inside the fireplace and struck a match
He sat there with a smile as I watched it burn to ash

Oak tree, oak tree
Oh how I love thee
You gave your life for us
You kept me cool
Back in June
And now you warm us up

Oak tree, oak tree
Oh how I love thee
I have but one regret
Once winter ends
And spring begins
I won’t see you again
