(The) Timber Man
Ton : EEnglish
ManEy many years ago when this lanAd was young
A loEt of our country was covered by bB7ig tall beautiful trees.
And meEn had to have the trees to make wood to buAild houses
MB7ake furniture with to make boEats even to make papAer with.
So as moEre and more people came more wood was needed
So moB7re and more trees were cut down.
And the man that livEed in the forest and cut down the trees
Was called the timber maEn.
Well my woErld is green and darAk and dumb My hB7ome is in the loggin' caEmp
All weEek I cut down the migAhty trees SatB7urday I get to do as I pleEase.
I giB7ve the man more than his hire and heA'll never know it iEf I tire
SB7how me the toughest tree around the timAber man will briEng it down.
SAwing it hard cEut it clean nB7o halfway or inE-between
MovAe when the axe is iEn my hand maB7ke way for the timEber man.
Spoken: YeEah he was a mighty big tough man usually
ThaEt timber man that lived in that forest and cut down those big trees.
Well they saEy there's sawdust iAn my brain
And donB7't get caught out in the raEin. I got stump water iAn my blood
The sweB7at from my brow turns the ground to mEud.
When the meB7n don't know how to fell a tree
The onAe they'll come and asEk is me.
I'll maB7rk my spot and I'll take my stand
The treAe's gonna fall for the timEber Man
SwiAng it hard cuEt it clean nB7o halfway or in-betEween
MovAe when the axe is iEn my hand mB7ake way for the timbEer man.
And when they're cutEtin' on a tree and it's juB7st about ready to fall
The maEn yells out
