lyrics

Marty O’Reilly & The Old Soul Orchestra - Cinnamon Tree

Set me up a swing beneath that cinnamon tree,
give me half a breeze to push the scent.
Fetch me up a telescope and fifteen yards of sturdy rope,
and i'll tell you where that puppy dog has went.

I bet she’s hit the railroad and she’s hopping cars,
bet she’s aboard a great ship, and she’s lost at sea,
but she'll come bounding back again, as soon as she smells that cinnamon,
and i'll bury her sweet bones beneath that tree

She was my three legged dog,
she’s just a three legged dog,
she was a three legged dog,
and i'll bury her bones right beneath that cinnamon tree
i'll bury her bones right beneath that cinnamon tree

momma seems to think she's gone for some kind of good,
poppa says shes six feet in the ground,
but i know she's alright when i hear her howling in the moonlight,
and its a wild and wonderful sound

its not the body of the beast that holds its spirit
its the spirit itself which i adore,
its her love and its her name,
not the confines of her frame that make me love her
love her so much more.

She was my three legged dog,
she’s just a three legged dog,
she was a three legged dog,
and i'll bury her bones right beneath that cinnamon tree
i'll bury her bones right beneath that cinnamon tree
