Will It Grow Lyrics - Seeing Things - Jakob Dylan

I made a promise to not let go 

Our tug of war has only made me want you more 

Steeped in hard luck and doomed to roam 

My love is braver than you know 

My forefathers, they worked this land 

And I was schooled in the tyranny of nature's plans 

Dressed in thunder a cloud came around 

Oh, in the shape of a lion a hand came down 

Now, damn this valley and damn this cold 

Well, take so long to let me know 

It's plant and reap and plow and sow 

But tell me, will it grow? 

Dig my ditches in the golden sun 

I'd be robbing these trains if I could catch me one 

Now, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday's gone 

Got me stone cold sober in a drought so long 

Boarded mansions and ghost filled yards 

There's a boy in a water tower counting cars 

Steel trap open in empty stalls 

Now there's a well worn saddle but the horse is gone 

Now, damn this valley and damn this cold 

Take so long to let me know 

It's plant and reap and plow and sow 

But tell me, will it grow? 

(Will it grow?) 

Jet black starlit midnight rolls 

I am down in the garden where I let you go 

Up on the surface the earth looks round 

But it's a godless city of cold flat ground 

Now, damn this valley and damn this cold 

Take so long to let me know 

It's plant and reap and plow and sow 

But tell me, will it grow? 

Will it grow? 

Will it grow? 

Will it grow?
