Garden Song

Inch by inch, row by row
 Gonna make this garden grow
 All it takes is a rake and a hoe
 And a piece of fertile ground
 Inch by inch, row by row
 Someone bless these seeds I sow
 Someone warm them from below
 Till the rain comes tumblin' down
 Pullin' weeds and pickin' stones
 Man is made of dreams and bones
 Feel the need to grow my own
 'Cause the time is close at hand
 Rainful rain, sun and rain
 Find my way in nature's chain
 Tune my body and my brain
 To the music from the land
 ♪
 Plant your rows straight and long
 Temper them with prayer and song
 Mother Earth will make you strong
 If you give her love and care
 Old crow watchin' hungrily
 From his perch in yonder tree
 In my garden I'm as free
 As that feathered thief up there
 Inch by inch, row by row
 Gonna make this garden grow
 All it takes is a rake and a hoe
 And a piece of fertile ground
 An inch by inch, row by row
 Someone bless these seeds I sow
 Someone warm them from below
 Till the rain comes tumblin' down
