Branching out de John Gorka

When i grow up i want to be a tree
want to make my home with the birds and the bees
and the squirrels, they can count on me
when i grow up to be a tree
I'll let my joints get stiff, put my feet in the ground
take the winters off and settle down
keep my clothes till they turn brown
when i grow up, i'm gonna settle down
Chorus:
i'm gonna reach, i'm gonna reach
i'm gonna reach, reach for the sky
i'm gonna reach, i'm gonna reach
i'm gonna reach, till i know why
When the spring comes by i'm gonna get real green
if the dogs come by i'm gonna get real mean
on windy days, i'll bend and lean
when i grow up i'm gonna get real green

if i should fall in storm or slumber
please don't turn me into lumber
i'd rather be a louisville slugger
swinging for the
Repeat chorus and fade
