Ain’t no sunshine when I mow
When I mow tomatoes grow
Ain’t no sunshine when I mow
My garden’s gotta grow
Any time I wield the hoe

Tomato vines they shade my hoe
Pepper plants won’t thrive no more
Cantaloupes all in a row
Water with a big green hose
Or a noisy thunderstorm

And  I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow, I mow…yeah, I oughtta leave the young plants alone, so those roots can find a home, any time I lay the loam…
