lyrics

Let’s plant a garden for the sisters three
Plant a row of corn, a row of squash and beans
The corn gives the bean vine a place to grow
The squash leaves shade the earth below

How do we pass what the elders know
Singing songs while planting rows
To learn what you sow is what you reap
you gotta love the crow and the bumblebee


Oh, let’s go down where the honeysuckle grows
down by the creek where the water flows
we can plant our seeds and sow our oats
It's easy
Oh, you’re gonna have rain and you’ll have sunshine
It takes both, and a little bit of time
Life is short and it’s yours and mine

I long for the land where I used to be
On the prairie wind you hear the elders sing
If you’ve lost your sisters just sing these notes
And you’ll find yourself where the honeysuckle grows

Oh, let’s go down where the honeysuckle grows
down by the creek where the water flows
we can plant our seeds and sow our oats
Oh, you’re gonna have rain and you’ll have sunshine
It takes both, and a little bit of time
Life is short and it’s yours and mine
It's easy

Oh, the sweet sisters three
Oh, the sweet sisters three
Oh, the sweet sisters three
Oh, the sweet sisters three
