The phrase appears random to me. I still have no idea what it means.
It's a Christmas carol lyric, jimbo

i agree with jimbo. i read it at least 4-5 times, but i didn't really get then part about the trees. hey, jimbo, want to go out some time?
When I submitted it, it had more than one type of tree in the puzzle, thus, either two types of wood (woods) or a grouping of trees (woods). If it is confusing in it's current configuration, that was not my intention. Sorry.
Wow, that was very good!
Thanks.
"Grandmother's house" gave it away for me. Mississippi only confirmed it, but I had a hard time figuring out how you represesnted it with this rebus, until I read your explanation. Now this song will be stuck in my head all day! But good job, I loved it!
I don't understadn the we part, but even without that, it was great! That is my favrotie Christmas Song!
The "we go" part is from the part where all the other words are in capitals, so the go, is small, or "wee".
I recognized the song immediately , then had to figure out how the parts made those words. I figured out "and" was through the woods and over the (Mississippi) river, and I saw Two wnet in front of Grandmother's house. However, I never figured out where the word "we" was hiding. The word "wee" is not among my 50,000 favorite words.
loooooooove it
Nice rebus. Thanks for posting.
