[Verse 1]

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

Please bless these seeds I sow

Please warm them from below

'Til the rains come a-tumblin' down

[Verse 2]

Pullin' weeds and pickin' stones

We are made of dreams and bones

Feel the need to grow my own

As the time is close at hand

Grain for grain, sun and rain

Find my way in nature's chain

Tune my body and my brain

To the music from the land

[Verse 1]

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

Please bless these seeds I sow

Please warm them from below

'Til the rains come a-tumblin' down

[Verse 3]

Plant your rows straight and long

Season them with prayer and song

Mother Earth will make you strong

If you give her love and care

An old crow watches hungrily

From his perch in yonder tree

And in my garden I'm as free

As that feathered thief up there

[Verse 1]

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

Please bless these seeds I sow

Please warm them from below

'Til the rains come a-tumblin' down
