lyrics

I wanna be a tree
A big white oak tree
With big strong limbs
You could climb on me
Bright leaves in the Fall
I'd stand tall
With deep roots to keep me from the howling wind
A tree is a friend
I wanna be a tree
I'm tired of being me

I wanna be a guitar
An ole Martin guitar
With new steel strings
I could sing to the stars
I'd play real good
With my rosewood
A sweet melody for your heart to win
A guitar is a friend
I wanna be a guitar
I'm tired of being me

I wanna be a car
A '57 Chevrolet
A few scratches and scars
Could be buffed away
You could rev me up
When you turn my key
Lord, my wheels would spin from here to eternity
An ole car is a friend
I wanna be a car
I'm tired of being me

I wanna be a beer
Golden and light
Cold and delicious
On a hot summer's night
You could sip on me
Or you could drink me down
Or you could kick my can when it's empty all over town
A cold beer is a friend
I wanna be a beer
I'm tired of being me
I wanna be free
