Paddled over here from across
He washed up on some windy beach
And dug a hole an d planted a tree
Planted a tree, planted a tree
Dug a hole and planted a tree
And a great -great -great
Right there beside the ocean
And later when she turned twenty -four
She moved away to Baltimore
And there she had her baby's three
When he was only seventeen
He met a girl from Tennessee
You'll see, you'll see, you'll see
The youngest was great -grandma,
She grew up and fell in love
She moved out west to Idaho
She moved out west to Idaho
Headin' west to California
Raised on the beach in the sunny rays
Married a girl named Natalie
And on that beach my daddy was born
On a stormy Sunday morning
By the same sea he met my mom,
they say the sea is in my bones
Mama and daddy well they had me,
we flew back to the eastern sea
underneath that great old tree
yeah yeah yeah yeah guitar solo
