Sowin' Love
Paul Overstreet - 《The Best of Paul Overstreet》
I used to love to walk behind my Daddy
As he plowed our garden every spring
My little bare feet in the dirt would make me happy
As talked about what her harvest time would bring
He'd say "Son this whole world is like a garden
and what you saw you're surely gonna reap
where bitter seeds are planted hearts will harden
butt a caring hand will make the harvest sweet"
He was sowin' lovefor the family
He was sowin' lovehe took a little extra time
Looking forward to a bountiful harvest
Like a good father doeshe was sowin' love
How I used to love to sit and watch my Mama
Workin' 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 you're bound to have a few
I guess that's why the good Lord gave us patches
so we could start each day out feeling new"
She was sewin' lovefor her family
She was sewin' loveshe took a little extra time
Looking forward to a bountiful harvest
Like a good mama doeshe was sewin' love
