The Woods Get To Know Me

Written by Angela Faye Martin

LYRICS
Well the ‘N’ fell off my typewriter
In the middle of the night
And the rain made the rats
Make umbrellas out of your neckties
I awoke in the night to a light
On the mountain so lonely
Help me with my coat and I’ll go
So the woods get to know me
Well film became necessity
When your chestnut eyes gave out
But it’s lost on the blind
Who know when you’re running a red light
I’ll be guided to fires
By the big water spiders of Jore
Well I’ll stand by the creek
‘Til it whispers to me a new story
Where old magnolia blue and woad
Give me over to mornings of gold
And the tulip tree
Braids together my sky cold
And the chimneys and ridges
Send tree line fringes to glory
Help me with my coat and I’ll go
So the woods get to know me
