| The Beet Grows On
Chorus:
The beet grows on, the beet grows on
Sun keeps pounding rhythm to the grain
La de da de de, la de da de da
Chemicals were once the rage, uh huh
History has turned the page, uh huh
Organic is the current thing, uh huh
Compost is our newborn king, uh huh
And the beet grows on, the beet grows on
Sun keeps pounding rhythm to the grain
La de da de de, la de da de da
The grocery store's the farmer’s mart, uh huh
Heirloom crops will fill the carts, uh huh
People keep on tilling up the soil
In summer’s heat the hardcore gardeners toil. . .
And the beet grows on, the beet grows on
Sun keeps pounding rhythm to the grain
La de da de de, la de da de da
Winter brings us time to reminisce
Sweet spring greens induce a gardener’s bliss
Garden springing up on vacant lots
We still cry "hey buddy, have you got a plot?"
And the beet grows on, the beet grows on
Sun keeps pounding rhythm to the grain
La de da de de, la de da de da
I’m fading….fading……….
