GARDEN OF LOVE

Well, it's a fine time for telling tales, and I've got a tale to tell
'Bout Sam the Yam and his french onion sweetheart named Adele.
Well, Sam knew he had met his match
When they met one night in the garden patch
By the columbine and the scarlet pimpernel.

A little bit o' patience and persistence,
A little bit o' tender loving care,
A little bit o' taking time to look for rainbows,
Even when the weather's fair,
A little bit o' underneath-the-mooning,
A little bit o' Son from up above,

That's whatcha gotta know
If you wanna make things grow in the Garden of Love.

Adele called Sam her "Super Spud" and her "Sweet Potato Pie"
And when she held him close, it was enough to make a grown yam cry.
They took it slow, 'cause don'tcha know,
It takes a little time for love to grow,
And they grew into love by and by...

And Sam said, "We cantaloupe but lettuce marry.
A berry fine pear we will make, it's true.
If you carrot all for me, don't leave me in misery.
Peas turnip at the church and say 'I honeydew'"

So they had a garden party in a nearby flowerbed.
Larry Boy and Bob Tomato came to see them wed.
The Greens were there with the Hollandais'
Reminiscin' 'bout their salad days,
Lookin' forward to the times that lay ahead.

Now, potatoes aren't the brightest root and yams are even less,
But when Adele had twins, Sam handled things with great finesse.
She said, "We only chose a name for one,
So what should we call our other son?"
Sam scratched his head and said, "Asparagus!" (A spare, I guess!)

A little bit o' patience and persistence,
A little bit o' tender loving care,
A little bit o' taking time to look for rainbows,
Even when the weather's fair,
A little bit o' underneath-the-mooning,
A little bit o' Son from up above,
Little bit o' work, little bit o' weedin'
If you wanna make your own Garden of Eden,
Little bit o' fun, little bit o' laughter,
And when you fight, a lotta makin' up after,

That's whatcha gotta know
If you wanna make things grow in the Garden of Love!
