| Dirt Made My Lunch - by The Banana Slug String Band CHORUS: Dirt you made my lunch, Dirt you made my lunch Thank you dirt, thanks a bunch For my salad, my sandwich, my milk, and my munch Dirt you made my lunch Dirt is a word that we often use When we talk about the earth beneath our shoes It's a place where plants can sink their toes And in a little while a garden grows CHORUS A farmer's plow will tickle the ground You know the earth has laughed when wheat is found The grain is taken and flower is ground For makin' a sandwich to munch on down CHORUS A stubby green beard grows upon the land Out of the soil the grass will stand But under the hoof it must bow For making milk by way of a cow (mooo!) 2x CHORUS (once in sign language!)
