GARDEN SONG

PETER, PAUL AND MARY

Key:

I nch by inch row by row I'm gonna ma ke this garden grow.

A ll it takes i s a rake and a hoe and a piece of fert ile ground.

I nch by inch row by ro w someon e bless t hese seeds I sow.

S omeone warm them from below till the rain comes tumblin g down.

P ulling weeds and picking stones we are made of drea ms and bones .

I feel the need to grow my own 'cause t he time is close at hand.

G rain for grain sun and r ain I find my way in nature' s chain

I tune my body and my brain to the mu sic of the land .

I nch by inch row by row I'm gonna ma ke this garden grow.

A ll it takes i s a rake and a hoe and a piece of fert ile ground.

I nch by inch row by ro w someon e bless t hese seeds I sow.

S omeone warm them from below till the rain comes tumblin g down.

So plant yo ur rows straight and lon g and temper them with pr ayer and so ng.

M other earth ca n keep you st rong if you giv e her love and care.

Now an old cr ow's watching hungrily from h is perc h in y onder tree .

I n my garden I' m as f ree as tha t feathered thief up there.

I nch by inch row by row I'm gonna ma ke this garden grow.

A ll it takes i s a rake and a hoe and a piece of fert ile ground.

I nch by inch row by ro w someon e bless t hese seeds I sow.

S omeone warm them from below till the rain comes tumblin g down.
