Last night I slept in a Sycamore tree
With the wind and rain all around me
Tonight I'll sleep in a warm feather bed
With that girl I left behind me

Oh she jumped in bed, and she covered up her head
And swore I couldn't find her
But I knew damn well, that she lied lied hell
So I jumped right in behind her
