lyrics

THE SYCAMORE TREE

Under the sycamore tree
I always to loved to spend the day
And on the sweetest breeze
I could hear the people laugh and play
With cheeks so red and clouds so white
The sky so blue beneath the golden dappled light

Under the sycamore tree
One morning my new neighbor stood
And smiling and said to me
We should keep it safe for the greater good
We’d build a wall and charge a fee
He said he’d do it all so I happily agreed

Under the sycamore tree
I used to love to spend the day
But now it isn’t free
And I have lost my purse and can not pay
And when I looked over that great big wall
The man was gone and there was no one there at all
Under the sycamore tree
Under the sycamore tree
Under the sycamore tree
