You've got to carry the wood
And for miles
You've got to carry the wood
And for miles
To be a survivor, to live
You've got to carry the wood
And for miles
You've got to carry the wood
And for miles
To be a survivor, to live
You've got to carry the wood
Like a bird on a wire
A macaw amongst crows
A beau amongst foes
But you don't seek no praise
Cause I could run for miles
And you could sleep for days
And you could tell me a secret
I'll take it to the grave
You've got to carry the wood
And for miles
You've got to carry the wood
And for miles
To be a survivor, to live
You've got to carry the wood
And for miles
You've got to carry the wood
And for miles
To be a survivor, to live
You've got to carry the wood
You can carry the candles
And I can turn a phrase
You can carry the hatchet
The Chop will sharpen the blade
You can catch a big fish
And I will tote the pole
You can carry the wood to burn
And I will dig the hole
You've got to carry the wood
And for miles
You've got to carry the wood
And for miles
To be a survivor, to live
You've got to carry the wood
And for miles
You've got to carry the wood
And for miles
To be a survivor, to live
You've got to carry the wood
You've got to carry the wood
Well and for miles
You've got to carry the wood
And for miles
To be a survivor to live
You've got to carry the wood
And for miles
You've got to carry the wood
And for miles
To be a survivor to live
You've got to carry the wood
