Garden Song Lyrics - Around The Campfire - Peter, Paul & Mary

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 comes tumbling down 

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 

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 

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 comes tumbling down 

So plant your rows straight and long, 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 

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 comes tumbling 

Inch by inch, row by row, someone bless these seeds I sow 

Someone warm them from below 'til the rain comes tumbling down
