Knotty Pine — текст песни (Gordon Lightfoot)

She`s my knotty pine
She leans with the wind
She cries turpentine
Sometimes she nettles me
But I don`t mind
Only now and then
When her branches lean beneath the snow
She`s knotty but nice
Reaching for the sky
She don`t like snow `n ice
To leave things as they stand
Is my advice
She`s been good to me
So I tend to go there when I can

She`s my knotty pine
Such a pretty scene
She tries to be kind
She gives birds a home
And shelters them
In her coat of green
She`s as green as evergreen can be

She`s a real delight
When little breezes call
To ruffle up her skin
All her sap runs free
And sticks to me
Hidden deep within
I will be her slave eternally

She`s my knotty pine
She leans with the wind
She crys turpentine
Sometimes she nettles me
But I don`t mind
Only now and then
When her branches lean beneath the snow
