LYRICS

 

Well, alright. There here's the story of Little Joe.

Howdy Pardner!

He dug a hole just to find where it would go

In the Ground

And then he planted a seed to grow a big, big tree.

A big, big tree

But he was surprised to find what he would see.

 

I dug a hole in the ground

I dug a hole in the ground

I wanted to grow a big, big tree

So, I dug a hole in the ground

I wanted to grow a big, big tree

So, I dug a hole in the ground

 

I put a seed in the hole

I put a seed in the hole

I wanted to grow a big, big tree

So, I put a seed in the hole

I wanted to grow a big, big tree

So, I put a seed in the hole

 

I poured water on the seed

I poured water on the seed

I wanted to grow a big, big tree

So, I poured water on the seed

I wanted to grow a big, big tree

So, I poured water on the seed

 

But I forgot one thing,

(yeah) I forgot one thing,

I wanted to grow a big, big tree

But, I forgot one thing.

 

<chorus>

(See) It’s not the dirt

It’s not the seed

It’s not the water

And it’s not me….

We can dig, we can plant, we can water all day

We can sit, we can watch but it’s safe to say that

God makes it grow…makes it grow…makes it growwwwe-o-eoeoeo

God makes it grow…makes it growwwwe-o-eoeoeo-ooooooooooooo

​

Who makes it grow?

God makes it grow

That's right.

Yeeee-haaaa

And now that we've all got it, let's sing it all over again.

 

I dug a hole in the ground (in the ground)

I put a seed in the hole (in the hole)

I wanted to grow a big, big tree

So, I poured water on the seed (on the seed)

Yeah, I wanted to grow a big, big tree

But, I forgot one thing. (I forgot one thing)

 

<chorus> <repeat>

 

God makes it grows

 

Yo-da-lay-de-whooooooo

 

Now you got it Little Joe

Yeeee-haaaa

Yeeee-haaaa is right...and so we don't forget,

let's just say it together one more time.

 

God makes it grow (God makes it grow)
