The Garden Song

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