Chinaberry Tree Lyrics

Vic Chesnutt Chinaberry Tree

Me with a machete
Going at the chinaberry tree
All the key players are watching me
Through their simian groove thing

Sweat slinging
Blood slickening
Life ever-loosening grill

Chinaberry tree
Chinaberry tree
Chinaberry tree
The biggest chinaberry tree
That I've ever seen

Sawdust in the air
And on the ground everywhere
Throwing myself at the cut
With a force heretofore unknown to me

Chinaberry tree
Chinaberry tree
Chinaberry tree

Chinaberry tree
Chinaberry tree
Chinaberry tree
Neatest chinaberry tree
That has ever been
