The man who spends his life on a mission, he's legendary 
Travelling from coast to coast

He'll plant a seed in every town he goes 
Fertilizing the country side 
You couldn't stop him with insecticide 

Makin' sure that the garden grows

When diggin' holes he'll be wearing a glove 
He go into the shed, get out a shovel and he shove 
He'll plant the seed, makin' sure it's sown 
He go into the shed and start hoein' with the hoe 
Ho ho ho

He'll water the yard with the garden hose 
Groomin' the backyard or whackin' a weed 
Yeah yeah yeah
