The cottonwood taught me how to listen to the wind
The willow showed me how to bend
The mighty oak showed me how to stand strong in a storm
And all that can become of an acorn
The cypress tree taught me how to hold on through a flood
Keep my roots deep and I won't budge
And the pine tree taught me how to reach for the sky
And the cedar showed how to lay low and get by when its dry
How I've grown, who I've come to be
These lessons learned, my history
Reads like the rings on a tree
Mother Nature's been my teacher all along
The rosewood on this guitar wrote this song
And the sweet magnolia brought me love on a southern summer breeze
And the giant redwood brought me to my knees
How I've grown, who I've come to be
Lessons learned, my history
Reads like the rings on a tree
And I've learned what's lost in the fall
Brings new beginnings in the spring
And one more ring
How I've grown, who I've come to be
These lessons learned, my history
Reads like the rings on a tree
Feels like rings on a tree
