Sowin' Love

(Music)

I used to love to walk behind my daddy
As he plowed are garden every spring
My little bare feet in the dirt would make me happy
As we talked about what harvest time would bring

He'd said, son, this 'ole world is like a garden
And what you sow you're surely gonna reap
Where bitter seeds are planted, hearts will harden
But a caring hand will make the harvest sweet

He was sowin' love for the family
He was sowin' love, he took a little extra time
Lookin' forward to a bountiful harvest
Like a good father does, he was sowin' love

(Music)

I used to love to sit and watch my mama
Working with her needle and her thread
So patiently, she listened to our problems
And we knew she heard every word we said

She'd say, children, this 'ole world is full of scratches
And in your life you're bound to have a few
I guess that's why the good Lord gave us patches
So we could start each day out feeling new

She was sewin' love for the family
She was sewin' love, she took a little extra time
Lookin' forward to a bountiful harvest
Like a good mama does, she was sewin' love

Yeah, they were sowin' love for the family
They were sowin' love, they took a little extra time
Lookin' forward to a bountiful harvest
And they took good care of us, they were sowin' love
Yeah, they did it all for us, they were sowin' love

(Music)
