We All Make The Flowers Grow

Cowards and heroes listen my friends

If you have money or nothing to spend

It'll make no difference in a hundred years or so

Sooner or later we'll all make the little flowers grow

Or later we'll all make the little flowers grow

Wise men and fools who get your fight

You'll never get out of this world alive

Don't run and hide it's no use I know

Sooner or later we'll all make the little flowers grow

Or later we'll all make the little flowers grow

[ ac.guitar ]

Short men and tall men and all the rest

Please don't blame me I didn't start this mess

Some of us stay and some of us go

Sooner or later we'll all make the little flowers grow

Or later we'll all make the little flowers grow

(Course I wouldn't want you to think that everybody born in Trouble was born bad

And they either had to get good or stay bad

But some of 'em born on the other side of that railroad track

Just never could find the time or a good enough teacher to learn about bein' good)
