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
