Inch by inch, row by row,
Gonna make this garden grow.
Gonna mulch it deep and low,
Gonna make it fertile ground.
Inch by inch, row by row,
please bless these seeds I sow.
Keep them safe on down below,
till the rains come tum
bling down.
Pulling weeds, picking stones,
we are made of dreams and bones.
I need a spot to call my own,
cause the time is close at hand.
Grain for grain, sun and rain,
I find my way in nature's chain.
I tune my body and my brain
to the music of the land.
Inch by inch, by row,
gonna make this garden grow.
Gonna mulch it deep and low,
gonna make it fertile ground.
Inch by inch, row by row,
please bless these seeds I sow.
Keep them safe on down below
Till the rains come tumbling down
Plant your rose straight and long
Season them with pray
er and song
Mother Earth will keep you strong
If you give her love and care
Old crow watching from a tree,
he's got his hungry eyes on me
An d in my garden
I'm as free as that
feathered leaf up there
Oh inch by inch, row by row,
gonna make this garden grow
Gonna mulch it deep and low
Gonna make it fertile ground
Inch by inch, row by row
Please bless these seeds I sow
Keep them safe on down below
Till the rains come tumbling
Rains come tumbling,
rains come tumbling down you
