Boys Choir This is my family tree Won't you take a minute sit down with me Learn a little bit of my history, history, history This is my family tree Won't you take a minute sit down with me Learn a little bit of my history, history, history
Verse See I love my dad And I love my mama An only child at best But never raised by another Though I'm quite content With my life and upbringing Daddy never understood why The reasons for my singing See my mom she stayed supportive In the ways that she could But even then I always felt like I was mis(ter)understood Even though I might just make a mess Doing what I love The only one left to impress Is the man up above
Chorus Oh I Wanna fall a little further from the tree Even if it takes the best of me I tried Oh I Wanna sow in the ground with my own hands Gotta grow into the man I am On my own, on my own
Verse See it was a late night back in '97 Talking to my dad 'bout the stars and the heavens he Was going on and on about being a kid once Eventually settling down and having a son That's where I come in Don't you ever wonder man how it could've been If you took a different road Shook a different hand Stepped out and left it up in God's hands See I'm not trying to question you and your authority, no You and mom both, you have been so good to me I never said it would be easy I got my faith and all that you gave me And if that means falling further from tree Well that's how it's gonna be
Chorus Oh I Wanna fall a little further from the tree Even if it takes the best of me I tried Oh I Wanna sow in the ground with my own hands Gotta grow into the man I am On my own, on my own
