I used to love to walk behind my daddy

as he plowed our garden every spring

little barefeet in the dirt would make me happy

as he talked about what harvest time would bring

and what you sow your surely gonna reap

but a caring hand will make the harvest sweet....And

so patiently she'd listen to our problems
B E
and we knew she heard every word we said

she'd say,"Children this old world is full of scratches

so we could start each day out feeling new
