THIS IS A REAL TREE THAT ACTUALLY EXISTS!!!

lyrics

It's the tree that owns itself
It's the tree that owns itself
It's the tree that owns itself
It's the tree that owns itself

There's a white oak tree in Georgia
They call the Jackson Oak
And I'm absolutely serious
I'm not making a joke

When I tell you that it owns itself
By a legal deed
Bestowed by William Jackson
Around 1820

It's the tree that owns itself
It's the tree that owns itself
It's the tree that owns itself
It's the tree that owns itself

Technically it's the offspring
of the original tree
Which met a sad demise
in the 1940s

But there's no need to be sad
No need to be forlorn
the son of the tree that owns itself
Grew from its dad's acorn

To make this even weirder
To make this all bananas
There's another tree that owns itself
Down in Alabama

It's the tree that owns itself
It's the tree that owns itself
It's the tree that owns itself
It's the tree that owns itself
