Dirt Made My Lunch

CHORUS:
C

Dirt made my lunch (oh, baby)
F                          C

Dirt made my lunch

F                            C
Thank you dirt, thanks a bunch

              F                                      C
For my salad, my sandwich, my milk and my munch

G                         C
Dirt made my lunch

Am                               C
Dirt is a word we often use

                  Am                                       C
When we talk about the earth beneath our shoes

           Am                                 C

It’s a place where plants can sink their toes

                 F                                          G

And in a little while a garden grows

 

A farmer’s plow will tickle the ground

You know the earth has laughed when wheat is found

The grain is taken and flour is ground

For making a sandwich to munch on down

 

A stubby green beard grows upon the land

Out of the soil the grass will stand

But under hoof it must bow

For making milk by way of a cow
