Story behind the song
Long before the invention of lasers and GPS, land surveyors had to rely on whatever was handy to define a border. Sometimes, it was a mark on a tree. That tree was called a Witness Tree.
Lyrics
THE WITNESS TREE
My darlin’ Angel
I’ve loved you since you were just a child
Even after all these long years
You can still melt me with your smile
But no one could ever really know
Just how strong our love can be
Nobody but me and you, Baby
And that old Witness Tree
Well, I been through fire and rain
Lord and I put you through some, too
Through all my trials and tribulations, Girl
You stuck with me like glue
Our hearts are like a beacon
Shinin’ bright for everyone to see
Since we pledged our love, Baby
Under that old Witness Tree
As I take the time to think back
About all of those that have come and gone
Many folks have dropped by the wayside
But I know we’ll carry on
I’ll be by your side, Darlin’
And I know that you’ll agree
That our love has grown stronger
Stronger than that old Witness Tree
