Get Out tbe 

 Old Oak Stoi^e 



Get out the Old Oak stove. Dad. 



And set her in the room ; 

 The time we spend a haulin' coal 



Is better spent near home; 

 There's dozens o' trees in the old South lot. 

 Halfway dead and bound to rot; 

 They'll make a fire blisterin' hot; 



Get out the Old Oak stove. 



Get out the Old Oak stove, Dad, 



Let's quit a usin' coal; 

 Our Uncle Sam can't get enough 



For all, to save his soul; 

 The less we use, the more he'll git; 

 A usin' wood may be "our bit 

 To make the Kaiser throw a fit; 



Get out the Old Oak stove. 



Get out the Old Oak stove. Dad. 



Grind up your axe for fun; 

 Put a bit of set in the old cross-cut 



And help to lick the Hun. 

 There's a bug-killed hickory to use this year; 

 It's good as coal, or a blame sight near. 

 And it's got a crackle I like to hear; 



Get out the Old Oak stove. 



Get out the Old Oak stove. Dad; 



The trees v.e take for wood 

 Had ought'a been cut long ago. 



To do the woodlot good. 

 We'll clean up all the dead and down 

 And sell a load or two in town. 

 Let wood help knock the Kaiser down! 



Get out the Old Oak stove.
