Axe

I will swing my axe, don't let the flames go down

Carve up some of that kindlin'

There's plenty of wood around

♪

Well I've seen the devil's shadow, underneath the moon

Keep that fire a-goin', the sun is comin' soon

I will swing my axe, don't let the flames go down

Carve up some of that kindlin'

There's plenty of wood around

♪

When I'm old and grey, and these two hands are worn

Cross me over Jordan, Lord and I'll keep Heaven warm

I will swing my axe, don't let the flames go down

Carve up some of that kindlin'

There's plenty of wood around
