What Kind of Tree Are You?
Charlotte Diamond




This song is available on Charlotte Diamond's Diamond in the Rough.



Chorus:
Trees, trees, trees, trees
What kind of tree are you?
What kind of tree are you?
Many kinds as you can see
Choose which one you’d like to be
Trees, trees, trees, trees

Are you a weeping willow, bending with the wind
Sighing, crying, whispering to a friend
Or are you an oak, standing proud and wise
Dropping acorns on the ground, reaching to the skies?

Chorus

Are you a holly tree with berries bright and red
Evergreen, prickly, I hope you won’t scratch me
Or are you a Christmas tree with decorated lights
Do you wink, do you blink and sparkle in the night?
HO, HO, HO

Chorus

Are you an apple tree with blossoms pink and white
Shining apples, red and green, can I take a bite?
Or are you a maple tree that grows across our land
Coast to coast, east to west, proudly you do stand.

Chorus

You can change your mind, be any kind
Grow up tall and gracefully
Like a tree, you’re a tree
You’re a tree, tree, tree, tree
Tree, tree, tree, tree!
