Peter, Paul and Mary — Garden Song

[Chorus] Inch by inch, row by row I'm 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 'Til the rain come tumbling down [Verse 1] Pullin' weeds and pickin' stones We are made of dreams and bones I feel the need to grow my own 'Cause the time is close at hand (Time is close at end) Grain for grain, sun and rain I'll find my way in nature's chain I tune my body and my brain To the music of the land (Ooh, come on and sing it with us) [Chorus] Inch by inch, row by row (Gonna make this garden) I'm gonna make this garden grow (Takes is a rake and) All it takes is a rake and a hoe And a piece of fertile ground (Inch by inch) Inch by inch, row by row (Someone bless) Someone bless these seeds I sow Someone warm them from below 'Til the rain come tumbling down [Verse 2] So plant your rows straight and long And temper them with prayer and song Mother Earth can keep you strong If you give her love and care Now an old crow watching hungrily From his perch in yonder tree In my garden I'm as free As that feathered thief up there (Ooh, a cappella now) [Chorus] Inch by inch, row by row (Gonna make this garden) I'm gonna make this garden grow (All it takes is a rake) All it takes is a rake and a hoe And a piece of fertile ground (A little louder now) Inch by inch, row by row (Someone bless) Someone bless these seeds I sow (Someone warm them from) Someone warm them from below 'Til the rain come tumbling down Inch by inch, row by row (Someone bless) Someone bless these seeds I sow (Someone warm them) Someone warm them from below 'Til the rain come tumbling down
