lyrics

CABBAGE TREE - THE LATE STARTERS

VERSE 1
Let’s hang in the garden find some things to do
There’s nothing better than hide n seek with you
We can find a place that we ne - ver knew
Am F C Dsus4
A solitude discovered by so few

CHORUS
Cos I won’t see you and you won’t see me
Cos I’ll be hidin in the cabbage tree
Woh oh
Woh oh

Cos you can’t see me and where I’ll be
Cos I’m a seed in the cabbage tree
Woh oh
Woh oh

VERSE 2
Am I behind a tree or behind a leaf I don’t know
If we get found we’ll have nothing to show
In native grass let love fore-ever flow
Cos when Santa comes we’ll all be playin in the snow

CHORUS

BRIDGE
I won’t be where I oughta be
I’ll be hidin in the cabbage tree
I won’t be where oughta be
I’ll be hidin in the cabbage tree

VERSE 3
Let’s take a ride in the deep blue sky and cruise
Residing here a mass connected snooze
We could be there or be where-ver we choose
Lying here we’ve got nothing to lose

CHORUS X 2
OUTRO
In the cabbage treeeeee….
Woh oh
