Plant a tree teach the children

Come together one and all

Plant a tree to stand tall

Teach the children the path to peace

Health and wealth and safe streets

Teach the children teach the family 

Teach the family teach the hood

Teach each neighborhood teach America

Work and struggle to make life good

Plant a tree whose limbs bring shade

To shield us from the heat of the summer day

Its fruit will feed neighbors and the poor

Plant a tree thats what people are for

An acorn’s small fragile and meek

But planted with care it grows over 40 feet

To shade our families in the noon time heat

Its leaves store carbon and provide oxygen

So stop global warming let’s begin

And plant a tree for a new day

Teach the children a new way
