Dave In The Pines

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Dave out in the pines Hardhat stained with sap Chain teeth bite the trunk Sun on the backwoods black His eyes are paper-thin Laughing through the dust Sweat runs down his grin Hands too rough to trust [Pre-Chorus] He says, “One more cut” Then he leans right in Sky bends overhead And the day starts spinning [Chorus] Dave, Dave in the pines High as a kite Dave, Dave in the pines Workin all night Stoned to the bone Flying up high Dave, Dave in the pines In the clouded sky [Verse 2] Boots sink in the mud Gas can in the dirt He swings like he’s possessed Never feels the hurt Two tall logs drop hard Rattling through the brush He wipes his nose with a sleeve Says, “Man, I’m in a rush” [Pre-Chorus] He says, “One more cut” Then he leans right in Sky bends overhead And the day starts spinning [Chorus] Dave, Dave in the pines High as a kite Dave, Dave in the pines Workin all night Stoned to the bone Flying up high Dave, Dave in the pines In the clouded sky [Bridge] [Feedback swell] The truck bed shakes The saw blade screams Dave is gone Somewhere in between [Chorus] Dave, Dave in the pines High as a kite Dave, Dave in the pines Workin all night Stoned to the bone Flying up high Dave, Dave in the pines In the clouded sky
