Family Tree Lyrics - Singles - Michael Martin Murphey

Gonna buy some wood every size and length 

Gonna build it good using all my strength 

Gonna clear the land where the house will be 

And start another branch of the family tree 

Gonna chalk a line and lay a walnut floor 

Build the walls of pine and hang a cherry door 

I'll cut the beams above from mahogany 

And I'll get the love from the family tree 

I've wandered far and I've walked alone 

Till the morning star finally led me home 

Now I'm here to stay where I was meant to be 

Living in the shade of the family tree

Gonna fill this place like my daddy did 

With a friendly face and a bunch of kids 

Even though he's gone he's a part of me 

As I carry on this family tree 

Girl, the wind may blow and the clouds may come 

Bringing ice and snow, blocking out the sun 

The earth may quake and the ground may freeze 

They will never shake this family tree 

I've wandered far and I've walked alone 

Till the morning star finally led me home 

Now I'm here to stay where I was meant to be 

Living in the shade of the family tree 

Mama look at him, don't he look like me 

He's the latest limb on the family tree
