I've heard it said that a wise man
Does not live on bread alone
But off the everlasting words

Dripping from the Almighty's tongue

And I've heard it said that a wise man

Does not look himself in the mirror
Then turn away and walk
Forgetting what he looks like standing there


Oh, men like these
They are just like trees

Planted near streams of water
With roots that grow
Deep, deep into the ground


I've heard it said that a wise man
Ignores the call from the corner

Even with her seductive eyes
He turns away, he doesn't listen to her lies


And oh, men like these
They are just like trees
Planted near streams of water

With roots that grow
Deep, deep into the ground


Into the ground
Into the ground
Into the ground


Into the ground
Into the ground

Into the ground

And oh, men like these

They are just like trees
Planted near streams of water
With roots that grow

Deep, deep into the ground

Into the ground

Into the ground
Into the ground


Into the ground
Into the ground
Into the ground
