Garden Song
by David Mallett
CHORUS:
Inch by inch, row by row
Gonna
make this garden growGonna mulch it deep and low
Gonna make it fertile ground
Inch by inch, row by row
Please bless these seeds I sow
Please keep them safe below
'Till the rain comes tumbling down
Pullin' weeds and
pickin' stonesWe are made of dreams and bones
Need a place to call my own
'Cause the time is close at hand
Grain for grain, sun
and rainFind my way in nature's chain
Till my body and my brain
Tell
the music of the landCHORUS
Plant your rows straight and long
Season with a prayer
and songMother Earth will make you strong
If you give her loving care
CHORUS
Old crow watching from a tree
He's got his hungry eye on me
In my garden I'm as free
As that feathered thief up there
