Knotty Pine Songtext
von The Bottle Rockets

Knotty pine knotty pine
In that spare room of mine
That sits at the top of the stairs
Its where I convene
With guitar and caffeine
To work on my worries and cares
The time that I spend
In that 6 foot by 10
Puts everything back in line
What happens below below I′ll never know


Up in the ol' knotty pine
My first floor is nice
And it does suffice
For most things that make up a day
When I′ve had enough
Of that day to day stuff
I like to just go away
To the place that I love
Just one floor above
And get all the peace I can find

That room gives me hugs it's better than drugs
Up in the ol' knotty pine
A place of my own
And truth be known
It′s probably really a closet
But it eases my mind
To be ′round that pine
A psychiatrist/treehouse composite
Sins to confess
To my old L6-S

And that wood all around me so fine
Yes the ceiling is low, but that's where I go
Up in the ol′ knotty pine
Yes the ceiling is low, but that's where I go
Up in the ol′ knotty pine
