Tall Oak Tree

There was a tall oak tree
 That loved the babbling brook
 And the babbling brook
 Loved the mountain high
 And the mountain high
 Loved the sky above
 The Creator looked down
 And saw everything was
 Love, love, love
 Then he took a bone
 And a piece of mud
 He made a man then a woman
 To be flesh and blood
 And then along came the Devil
 Up out of the ground
 He tempted woman and
 That spread sin all around
 All around, all around
 If she'd left that apple
 On the apple tree
 There'd be no tears and sorrow
 We'd live eternally
 And then along came Man
 To burn the oak tree down
 And now the babbling brook
 Is a solid ground
 And the mountain high
 Don't stand so high
 And there's a cloud of smoke
 That covers up the clear blue sky
 There was a tall oak tree
 There was a tall oak tree
 There was a tall oak tree
