lyrics

The landscape I grew up in
Has been defaced by Douglas firs
My father, he planted so many of them
That I inherited

My best friend owns a sawmill
That he inherited
Planks for coffins are much in demand
And he never calls me

I was born in a forest
(You can tell from my name)
My family tree's a Douglas
That's all there is I fear

Family wood is still burning deep inside of me
A never-ending fire that will never go out
