Well, I didn't know what I should do To help myself get over you And mend this heart of mine So I took my axe and walked around Until I knew that I had found The perfect piece of pine
Well I took my axe and walked around Sized it up girl and I cut it down
Oh, girl, you will polish Oh, girl, you will polish
Well, I carved and sanded with the grain I've added coats of stain And my new heart's looking good But one more problem still remains I just can't seem to make this thing
Well, I carved and sanded with the grain This heart of mine just ain't the same
Oh, girl, you will polish Oh, girl, you will polish
Come on, girl, you will polish Oh, girl, you will polish
