Wood
His old hands were brown from the varnish and the stain And I had come to talk in my youth and in my pain I told him that I was not the man I want to be I waited to see what he would say
But he just kept on working as if I wasn't there The sweat on his face and dust in his hair He paused for a moment when I'd been there for a while He wiped his brow - I thought I saw him smile
(Chorus) He just said , 'Wood, From the earth beneath our feet there grows a tree And we can take it, shape it, to what's it's meant to be The stronger the fiber, the better for the good Son, I believe that men are just like wood.'

I sat there beside him as he carved out every line He made a thing of beauty from a rough 'ol piece of pine He seem to have the vision of what the end would be I felt as if some pieces had been taken out of me
(repeat chorus)
I left a little taller wiser, and free I learned the use of tools for the carpenter in me I don't have all the answers but one thing I have have found We are the choices that we make when the chips are down, wood.
He said, 'The stronger the fiber, the better for the good Son, I believe that men are just like wood.'
Just like wood.
