Roots, Stems, Leaves
The Banana Slug String Band
The Banana Slug String Band performs this song on Dirt Made My Lunch and on
Singing in Our Garden.
CHORUS: Roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits and seeds Roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits and seeds Roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits and seeds Roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits and seeds That's six parts, six parts, six plant parts that people need. The roots hold the plant in the ground, They gather up the water that falls around. And there's a root inside of me Because a carrot is a root that I eat. That's six parts, six parts, six plant parts that people need A stem is an elevator growing up from the ground, The water goes up and the sugar back down And there's a stem inside of me Because celery is a stem that I eat The leaves are the kitchens where the food is done They breathe the air and catch rays from the sun. And there's a leaf inside of me Because lettuce is a leaf that I eat. CHORUS The flowers are dressed so colorfully, They hold the pollen and attract the bees. And there's a flower inside of me Because cauliflower is a flower I eat The fruit gets ripe, then falls on down It hold the seeds and feeds the ground. And there's a fruit inside of me Because an apple is a fruit that I eat. CHORUS The seeds get buried in the earth, And the cycle starts again with a new plant's birth. And there are seed inside of me Because sunflower is a seed that I eat. Now you know what this whole world needs, It's roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits and seeds. There's six plant parts inside of me Because a garden salad is what I eat. CHORUS
