I've heard it said that a wise man
Does not live on bread alone
But off the everlasting words
Dripping from the Almighty's tongueAnd I've heard it said that a wise man
Does not look at himself in the mirror
Then turn away and walk
Forgetting what he looks like standing thereOh, men like these
They are just like trees
Planted near streams of water
With roots that grow
Deep, deep into the groundI've heard it said that a wise man
Ignores the call from the corner
Even with her seductive eyes
He turns away, he doesn't listen to her liesAnd oh, men like these
They are just like trees
Planted near streams of water
With roots that grow
Deep, deep into the groundInto the ground
Into the ground
Into the groundInto the ground
Into the ground
Into the groundAnd oh, men like these
They are just like trees
Planted near streams of water
With roots that grow
Deep, deep into the groundInto the ground
Into the ground
Into the groundInto the ground
Into the ground
Into the ground
