paroles de chanson Boy from the Woods - Bruce Guthro

As I was walking through the woods to find a Christmas tree,
I came upon a small young boy & says he to me,
"I know where all the best ones are for a reasonable fee,
I will take you there."

I smiled and thought, "Now what an offer, how can I refuse,
And for such a noble deed, my boy, how much are you due?"
He said "Now sir, I think that I will leave that up to you,
What ever you think is fair."

Some faith, hope & love
A smile & maybe even a little hug
A deed that only you and God recall
Christmas brings it out in us all

He took me to the finest tree I'm sure in all the land
He said "you'll have to cut it down, I'm much too small a man",
And as I did, I watched him planting two more in the ground,
Someone has to help to make this big old world go round.

Some faith, hope & love
A smile & maybe even a little hug
A deed that only you and God recall
Christmas brings it out in us all

I reached down in my wallet for to pay his fee,
He said " I think I know someone who needs that more than me,
You will find an orphanage just two miles down the road,
Christmas is a coming, and the pot is getting low."

I walked into the orphanage to do all that I could.
She said "I think I know who sent you here... the Boy from the woods.
Now and then someone like you comes walking through my door,
The funny thing is, no one round here say the child before."

But he brings...
Some faith, hope & love
A smile & maybe even a little hug
A deed that only you and God recall
Christmas brings it out in us all

And without the deeds that only you and God recall,
This big old world just wouldn't turn at all.
