I use to love to walk behind my daddy
As he plowed our garden every spring
Our little bare feet in the dirt would make me happy
As we talked about what harvest time would bring
HeÔÇÖd say son this whole world is like a garden
And what you sow your surely gonna reap
Where bitter seeds are planted hearts will harden
But a caring hand will make the harvest sweet
Chorus:
And he was sowinÔÇÖ love for the family
Yeah he was sowinÔÇÖ love, he took a little extra time
LookinÔÇÖ forward to a bountiful harvest
Like a good father does he was sowinÔÇÖ love
And how I use to love and sit and watch my momma
WorkinÔÇÖ with her needle and her thread
So patiently she'd listen to our problems
And we knew she heard every word we said
She'd say "children this old world is full of scratches
And in your life your bound to have a few"
I guess that's why the good Lord gave us patches
So we could start each day out feelinÔÇÖ new
Chorus:
Yes she was sowinÔÇÖ love for the family
She was sowinÔÇÖ love, she took a little extra time
LookinÔÇÖ forward to a bountiful harvest
Like a good momma does she was sowinÔÇÖ love
Chorus:
Yeah they were sowinÔÇÖ love for the family
They were sowinÔÇÖ love, they took a little extra time
LookinÔÇÖ forward to a bountiful harvest
They took good care of us they were sowinÔÇÖ love
Yeah they did it all for us they were sowinÔÇÖ love
