Hank Williams Jr. - Mighty Oak Trees lyrics

Like mighty oak trees They line a shaded, well-worn path They're the souls that have walked beside me And I can see that, lookin' back Friends that stood by me Right up to the last Like mighty oak trees They've helped me walk this well worn path Down by the waters Of a stream that never ends They sheltered me from the noonday sun and guard me From the wind Now I close my eyes and I can see them All once again Like mighty oak trees Down by that stream that never ends Strong and always there When I needed them the most You know they're rooted Way down deep in my soul Now I think about 'em all the time When I'm out on the road And every night when I lay down I know I'm lookin' up At mighty oak trees Like mighty oak trees They have stood the test of time They were always there to lean on When strength was hard to find I just hope that one day You're lucky enough to find Mighty oak trees Mighty oak trees Like those rowdy friends of mine
