Six Plant Parts
Chorus: Roots, stems, leaves, flowers fruits and seeds,
Roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits and seeds,
Roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits and seeds,
That’s roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits and seeds.
Chorus after each verse:
That’s six parts, six parts, six plant parts that plants and people need.
The roots pull the plant into the ground. They gather up the water that falls around.
There’s a root inside of me cause carrot is a root that I eat.
The stem is an elevator up from the ground. The water goes up and the sugar back down
And there’s a stem inside of me cause celery is a stem that I eat.
Chorus: That’s 6 parts, 6 parts, 6 plant parts that plants and people need.
The leaves are the kitchens where the food is done.
They breathe the air and catch the rays from the sun.
There’s a leaf inside of me cause lettuce is a leaf that I eat.
Chorus: That’s 6 parts. 6 parts, 6 plant parts that plants and people need.
The flowers are dressed so colorfully.
They hold the pollen and attract the bees
And there’s a flower inside of me cause cauliflower is a flower that I eat.
Chorus
The fruit gets ripe and it falls on the ground.
It holds the seeds and it feeds the ground.
Theirs a fruit inside of me cause apple is a fruit that I eat.
Chorus
The seeds get buried in the earth. The cycle starts again with a new plant birth,
And there’s a seed inside of me cause sunflower is a seed that I eat.
Chorus
Now you know what this whole world needs.
It’s roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruit and seeds.
There’s 6 plant parts inside of me cause a garden salad is what I eat.
That’s 6 parts, 6 parts, 6 plant parts that plants and people need.
Full chorus
Dirt Made My Lunch
Chorus: Dirt made my lunch, dirt made my lunch.
Thank you dirt, thanks a bunch,
For my salad, my sandwich, my milk and my munch,
Cause dirt, you made my lunch!
Dirt is a word we often use when we talk about the earth beneath our shoes.
It’s a place where plants can sink their toes and in a little while a garden grows.
chorus
A farmers plow will tickle the ground, you know the earth is left when the wheat is bound.
The grain is taken and the flour is ground for making a sandwich to munch on down.
Chorus
A jolly green beard grows upon the land. Out of the soil, the grass will stand,
But under the hoof it must bow, for making milk by way of a cow.
Chorus
The Garden Song
Chorus: Inch by inch, row by row, gonna help this garden grow.
Gonna mulch it deep below, gonna make it fertile ground.
Inch by inch, row by row, please bless these seeds I sow,
And warm them from below, till the rains come tumbling down.
Pulling weeds, picking stones, we are made of dreams and bones.
Feel the need to grow our own for the times are in our hands.
Rain for grain, sun and rain, we are part of nature’s chain.
Tune your heart and tune your brain to the music of the land.
(Chorus )
Plant your rows straight and long. Temper them with prayer and song.
Mother Earth will make you strong if you give her love and care.
Day by day, seed to sprout, this is what life’s all about,
From the inside pushing out, we keep growing everywhere.
(chorus)
Dirt to soil, seed to sprout, this is what life’s all about,
From the garden reaching out with food for many to share.
(chorus )
Smokey the Bear
With a rangers hat and shovel – in a pair of dungarees
You will find him in the forest – always sniffing at the breeze.
People stop and pay attention when he tells them to beware,
Cause everybody knows that he’s the fire prevention bear!
Chorus: Smokey the bear, Smokey the bear
Prowlin’ and a growlin’ and a sniffing the air
He can find a fire before it starts to flame
That’s why they call him Smokey
That was how he got his name
that there’s nothing like a tree
Cause they’re good for kid’s to climb in
And they’re beautiful to see
You just have to look around you
And you’ll find it’s not a joke
Just think what you’d be missing
If they all went up in smoke
My Roots Go Down
Chorus: My roots go down, down into the earth
My roots go down, down into the earth
My roots go down, down, down, down into the earth.
1. I am a pine on a mountainside ( 3 times)
My roots go down
2. I am a willow swaying in the breeze ( 3 times)
My roots go down
3. I am a river flowing with life ( 3 times)
4. We are children all across the land ( 3 times)
Our roots go down
