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 tongue
 
  
  And I've heard it said that a wise man
 
 Does not look himself in the mirror
 
 Then turn away and walk
 
 Forgetting what he looks like standing there
  
 
 Oh, men like these
 
 They are just like trees
 
 Planted near streams of water
 
 With roots that grow
 
 Deep, deep into the ground
  
 
 I'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 lies
  
 
 And oh, men like these
 
 They are just like trees
 
 Planted near streams of water
 
 With roots that grow
 
 Deep, deep into the ground
  
 
 Into the ground
 
 Into the ground
 
 Into the ground
  
 
 Into the ground
 
 Into the ground
 
 Into the ground
  
 
 And oh, men like these
 
 They are just like trees
 
 Planted near streams of water
 
 With roots that grow
 
 Deep, deep into the ground
  
 
 Into the ground
 
 Into the ground
 
 Into the ground
  
 
 Into the ground
 
 Into the ground
 
 Into the ground
