Scratch in the dirt and plant a kiss Dig a hole for someone we’ll miss Plant a kiss, with a rusty hoe Mound the ground and let it go Meet me at the kissing tree Just the birds and you and me The bees buzz their weary song The fence post shadows growing long Quiet now, just hold my hand May the kissing tree forever stand Plant a kiss deep in the ground Join hands, ring ‘round and ‘round Ashes, ashes, all fall down Wear that kiss and a willow crown Meet me at the kissing tree Just the birds and you and me The bees buzz their weary song The fence post shadows growing long Quiet now, just hold my hand May the kissing tree forever stand On top of the hill, be sure to meet me Plant a kiss, we’ll plant a tree Dry bones to that graveyard Scratch in the dirt and plant a kiss hard Meet me at the kissing tree Just the birds and you and me The bees buzz their weary song The fence post shadows growing long Quiet now, just hold my hand May the kissing tree forever stand
