Intro: Verse: 1 I wasn't looking for trouble When trouble came looking for me Just trying to find some shelter When I found a palmetto tree She said you're safe beneath my branches Stay as long as you please If you're weary from all your running I have fruit that taste like a peach She said I can be your giving tree If your heart needs some therapy And though her branches were just out of reach I'll never forget the day I met a palmetto peach The day I met a palmetto peach Verse: 2 The wind it left me tired The rain it left me cold I asked her if it was normal For a young man to feel this old? And smiling she said you'll be fine dear You just need a hand to hold I promise if you hang in there you'll find Someone with a heart of gold She said I can be your giving tree If your heart needs some therapy And though her branches were just out of reach I'll never forget the day I met a palmetto peach La-da-da la-da-da The day I met a palmetto peach Instrumental She said I can be your giving tree If your heart needs some therapy And though her branches were just out of reach I'll never forget the day I met a palmetto peach La-da-da la-da-da The day I met a palmetto peach La-da-da la-da-da The day I met a palmetto peach Outro
