THE LEANING TREE
BY
WIN THOMPKINS & THE STOMPERS
The Leaning tree is not always the first to fall
Oh doesn’t matter the age when they’re called
While you’re young and strong, God may call you home
Oh the leaning tree is not always the first to fall
The Leaning tree is not always the first to fall
Oh doesn’t matter the age when they’re called
While you’re young and strong, God may call you home
Oh the leaning tree is not always the first to fall
Some people think because they’re young
They have the time to play and roam
You better get your house in order
Before death do appear
You never know the time you’ll be leaving here
Oh The Leaning tree is not always the first to fall
Oh doesn’t matter the age when they’re called
While you’re young and strong, God may call you home
Oh the leaning tree is not always the first to fall
Let me say, let me say that
The Leaning tree is not always the first to fall
Oh doesn’t matter the age when they’re called
While you’re young and strong, God may call you home
Oh, oh the leaning tree is not always the first to fall
There was an old Godly man
His story always comes to mind
He outlived all his children
He lived a long time
God let him live to see a hundred nine
The Leaning tree is not always the first to fall
Oh doesn’t matter the age when they’re called
While you’re young and strong, God may call you home
Oh the leaning tree is not always the first to fall
I said that The Leaning tree is not always the first to fall
Oh, oh doesn’t matter the age when they’re called
While you’re young and strong, God may call you home
Oh the leaning tree is not always the first to fall
Not Always(not always)
Not the first to fall(not the first to fall)
The leaning tree(not always)
Not the first to fall(not the first to fall)
It get weak sometime(not always)
It get weak sometime(not the first to fall)
It’s not the first to fall(not always)
It’s not the first to fall(not the first to fall)
The leaning tree(not always)
The leaning tree(not the first to fall)
It’s not the first to fall(not always)
It’s not the first to fall(not the first to fall)
Somebody got a Mother (not always)

Somebody got a Father (not always)
Leaning (not the first to fall)
You wanna play and roam (not always)
Not the first to fall (not the first to fall)
The Leaning tree (not always)
The leaning tree (not the first to fall)
