I’ll plant my own tree and I’ll make it grow. My tree will not be just one in a row. My tree will offer shade when strangers go by. If you’re a stranger, brother, well so am I.
Come tomorrow! All that I see is my tree: Oh, Lord, what a sight, Let someone stop me And I will put up a fight, It's my yard, So I will try hard To welcome friends I have yet to know! Oh, I'll plant my own tree. My! Own! Tree! And I’ll make it grow!
