Is it really about a garden?

lyrics

I think I’ll plant a garden
then I’ll watch it grow
I’ll be longing for the day to reap the seeds that I sew

No, it ain’t easy
but I hope to grow a tree
working every day to keep the weeds from running free

I could head up the mountain
to the water well
but I’d be thinkin’ ‘bout Jack and the way that he fell

So I'll dig up the soil
'round the willow tree
and try to learn about how it came to be

Oh….
I dream of plenty…..
my garden grows…….
steady…...
towards the sun
and I’ll pull up all the weeds
until I’m done

It might rain tomorrow
that’s just fine
the crop won’t grow if it's all sunshine

and if a drought comes early
don't bother me
I’ll just work a little harder and I’ll be happy

So I planted my garden
and it grew and grew
it’s about as tall as me, but not as tall as you

No, it ain’t done yet
it’ll grow taller still
yielding the harvest to give me my fill
