A Bit Of Earth Lyrics

A bit of earth
She wants a little bit of earth
She'll plant some seeds
The seeds will grow
The flowers bloom but is their bounty what she needs?

How can she chance to love a little bit of earth?
Does she not know the earth is hard
and doesn't care if one small girl wants things to grow?

She needs a friend
She needs a father, brother, sister, mother's arms
She needs to laugh,
she needs to dance and learn to work her girlish charm

She needs a home
The only thing she really needs I cannot give
Instead she asks a bit of earth to make it live

She should have a pony
Gallop 'cross the moorBobby Darin - A Bit Of Earth - http://motolyrics.com/bobby-darin/a-bit-of-earth-lyrics.html
She should have a doll's house with a hundred rooms per floor
Why can't she ask for a treasure?
Something that money can buy that won't die

When I'd give her the world
she asks instead for some earth

A bit of earth
She wants a little bit of earth
She'll plant some seeds
The seeds will grow
The flowers bloom their beauty just the thing she needs

She'll grow to love
the tender roses, lilies fair, the iris tall
and then in fall, her bit of earth will freeze and kill them all

A bit of earth
A bit of earth
A bit of earth
A bit of EARTH!
