Oh,
farmer,
plant a seed for me
Something with strong roots like a willow tree
And whenever you need rest from the toil of your day
Underneath the branches you'll find sweet shade
And you'll remember me
Or better still,
dear farmer,
you could plant a field of corn
Swaying in the breeze,
tall and green and gold
Plant this and feed your whole family So every time you eat,
you'll remember me
Oh, farmer,
I see your weathered hands Oh, farmer,
there's so much you understand
For you I'll grow and give you what you need
All I'm asking for is just one tiny seed
Oh, farmer,
the mustard seed is very small
But sometimes little things can move and break
down walls And some things in life happen with no rhyme
or reason And you build your life upon the ever-changing
seasons
Oh,
farmer,
I see your weathered hands Oh,
farmer,
there's so much you understand
For you I'll grow and give you what you need
All I'm asking for is just one tiny seed
Oh,
farmer,
there's so much you understand
For you I'll grow and give you what you need
All I'm asking for is just one tiny seed
Oh,
farmer,
plant a seed for me
