Grandma's Garden

Grandma had a garden in the back yard
She always had a way with things that grow
She'd be out there early in the spring time
Just as soon as she was sure it wouldn't snow
She'd say I love to watch the seeds I've planted
Grow up into what they oughta be
Oh, I thought she was talking about tomatoes
She was talking about her family

Grandma's garden
Grew up strong
Because she weeded out whatever could go wrong
She'd say the straight and narrow
Is the toughest row to hoe
Just remember what you reap is what you sow
Grandma's love is what made Grandpa's garden grow

I went to church last Sunday morn'
The same one she'd attended sixty years
They asked me if I'd say some words about her
And I got up, fighting back the tears
And I said I used to watch her rake the rocks out
And tie up every vine with love and care
That little peice of Grandma taught me some lessons
And without her I'd never had a prayer

Grandma's garden
Grew up strong
Cause' she weeded out whatever could go wrong
She'd say the straight and narrow
Is the toughest row to hoe
Just remember what you reap is what you sow
Grandma's love is what made Grandpa's garden grow

Grandma's garden
Grew up strong
'Cause she weeded out whatever could go wrong
She'd say the straight and narrow
Is the toughest row to hoe
In the garden of The Father
Now she's home
Grandma's love is what made Grandpa's garden grow
Grandma's love is what made Grandpa's garden grow
