A Bit Of Earth lyrics

A bit of Earth
She wants a little bit of earth she`ll plant some seeds
The seeds will grow
The flowers bloom but is their bounty shat she needs
How can she chance
To love a little bit of Earth does she not know
The Earth is old
And doesn`t care if one small girl wants things to grow

She needs a friend
She needs a father, brother, sister, mother`s arms
She needs to laugh
She needs to dance and learn to work her girlish charms
She needs a home
The only thing she really needs I cannot give
Instead she asks
A bit of earth to make it live

She should have a pony
Gallop `cross the moor
She should have a doll`s house
With a hundred rooms per floor
Why can`t she ask for a treasure
Something that money can buy that won`t die
When I`d give her the world
She asks instead for some earth

A bit of earth
She wants a little bit of earth she`ll plant some seeds
The seeds will grow
The flowers bloom their beauty just the thing she needs
She`ll grow to love
The tender roses, lilies fair the iris tall
And then in fall
Her bit of earth will freeze and kill them all

A bit of earth
A bit of earth
A bit of earth
A bit of earth
