Good, sweet earth Sleeves rolled up and hands buried in the dirt I can see you there in one of dad's old shirts Showing me how life's supposed to work
Good straight lines You need seed and sweat and soil and sweet sunshine Once those roots take hold you'll be just fine It's a beautiful design It just takes love and faith and grace, a little time
We're all sons and daughters Just ripples on the water Trying to make it matter Until our time to leave One day they'll carve your name in stone Then send your soul on home 'Till then its praying for rain And pulling up the weeds Planting trees we'll never see
First day of spring The whole world's waking up and turning green And everything connects to everything It's a beautiful design It just takes love and faith and grace, a little time
We're all sons and daughters Just ripples on the water Trying to make it matter Until our time to leave One day they'll carve your name in stone Then send your soul on home 'Till then its praying for rain And pulling up the weeds Planting trees we'll never see
Statues fall and glory fades But a 100-year-old oak tree still gives shade
We're all sons and daughters Just ripples on the water Trying to make it matter Until our time to leave One day they'll carve our name in stone Then send our souls on home 'Till then its praying for rain And pulling up the weeds
'Till then its praying for rain And pulling up the weeds Planting trees we'll never see Trees we'll never seeTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
