Reach up to the leaves
And tap into the veins
Dig down to the root
Extracting every name
Bend into the wind
With one ear to the ground
Listen to the voices
Recording every sound
Jack, Cecil and Stephanie
All reside beside me
Dennis, Barry and Ethelene
Nesting in the branches of my family tree
Laura, Austyn and Jeremy
All reside beside me
Berger, Cibal and aunt Pauline
Nesting in the branches of my family tree
All of us together
Mother, Iâm going to buy you that island
Father, I want to take to the sea
Tonia, Vickie, Kristin, Chuck
I wish you all the best of luck
Dylan, Greer, Amanda, Gable
Seated âround this great big table
Dana, Roni, Rocky, Janet
Reach your arms around the planet
Brandon, Azure and Raquel
Hereâs a shout to wish you well
Linzey, Jozie, Vinnie, Britney
Come on up and sit right by me
Under the family tree
