They said he grew wild in the country
Perhaps from sturdier seed
But somehow he survived the country
Growing strong and wilder than weeds
The sunshine he had for his mornings
From the country he garnished his needs
Each day he grew taller and stronger
And wilder much wilder than weeds
By your standards crude and unpolished
But he manages to fill my needs
Just remember the most beautiful orchard
Once was the wildest of weeds
