I'd like to see my plants bloom free
But it's to hot in the summer I need shade
They always fry most of them die
In my fifteen foot long garden that needs shade

Oh stray cat fiends they dump and pee
At least they keep the soil healthy
I'd like to see my plants bloom free
But it's too hot in the summer I need shade

Green growth is born from a rain storm
I don't want earthworms to drown under the ground
Weed flowerbed not all is dead
In my fifteen foot long garden that needs shade

The birds sing and hop around
While pecking seeds blown to the ground
I'd like to see my plants bloom free
But it's getting close to winter it's too late

Crab grass I shout root them out
The rain turns the stone clay in to slime
(Turns the stone clay into slime)
What a joy a ruby-throated boy
I hope you stay happy and save
(Stay happy and save)

I am always happy just to see
The things that animals and bugs do
I'd like to see my plants bloom free
In my fifteen foot long garden with you
I'd like all the butterflies to come to
Grasshoppers are welcome hop on through
