Lyrics
I will swing my axe, don't let the flames go down
Carve up some of that kindlin'
There's plenty of wood around
Well, I've seen the devil's shadow underneath the moon
Keep that fire a-goin', the sun is comin' soon
I will swing my axe, don't let the flames go down
Carve up some of that kindlin'
Oh, there's plenty of wood around
When I'm old and grey, and these two hands are worn
Cross me over Jordan, Lord, and I'll keep Heaven warm
I will swing my axe, don't let the flames go down
Carve up some of that kindlin'
There's plenty of wood around
