Land of the Lost Video (MV)

There's an old tree down by the creek they say
I'm gonna cut it down, gonna cut it down one day
An old tree by the creek they say
I'm gonna cut it down, gonna cut it down today

Papa he was a working man
Worked his hands down to the bone
And mama oh how she loved him
But she never left him alone
It wasn't three months after I left
That papa done gone lost his mind
We found him in the shed with a bullet in his head
And the dog sittin' by his side

There's an old tree down by the creek they say
I'm gonna cut it down, gonna cut it down one day
An old tree by the creek they say
I'm gonna cut it down, gonna cut it down today

Sunday school and the golden rule
Never did understand
How the preacher preached from the pulpit
When he owned all the land
Well there's murder in the street and blood on my hands
Livin' in the land of the lost
I thought He said give it to the widows and orphans
Or d'ya just say it for the applause

There's an old tree down by the creek they say
I'm gonna cut it down, gonna cut it down one day
An old tree by the creek they say
I'm gonna cut it down, gonna cut it down today

Love was always something
I could never fully grasp
Like loving the Lord or women
I'd fall in and out so fast
But it was love that reached down and pulled me off the ground
And said you been born again
So start livin' for that son o' god
And not for the son of sam

There's an old tree down by the creek they say
I'm gonna cut it down, gonna cut it down one day
An old tree by the creek they say
I'm gonna cut it down, gonna cut it down today
