Ashlyn

Tumble on down

       where the water be foun’

    Where the rabbits meet

               an’ the buttercups sweet

  Full o’ yew an’ cedar

         river birch an’ pine

        Lay on down

               ta loose track o’ time

     Listen ta the Thrushs’ hymn

 Way, way up upon the crook’d limb

Within the canopy

           of the great Ash tree

     That’s where she nests

                            an sings so free

    Gran Daddy took me here

                        many years ago

Ta show the world

        is more then go, go, go

                Here, under this giant tree

                This is where I am free
