Jakob Dylan Will It Grow Lyrics

Will It Grow Lyrics

I made a promise to not let go 

Our tug of war has only made me want you
more

Steeped in hard luck and doomed to roam

My love is braver than
you know

My forefathers they worked this land

And I was schooled in
the tyranny of nature's plans

Dressed in thunder a cloud came round

In the shape of a lion a hand came down



Damn this valley

Damn this cold

Take so long to let me know

It's plant and reap
and plow and sow

But tell me will it grow



Dig my ditches in
the golden sun

I'd be robbing these trains if I could catch me one

Sunday Monday now Tuesday's gone

Got me stone cold sober n a drought so
long

Boarded mansions and ghost filled yards

There's a boy in a
water tower counting cars

Steel traps open and empty stalls

There's
a well-worn saddle but the horse is gone



Damn this valley

Damn this cold

Take so long to let me know

It's plant and reap
and plow and sow

But tell me will it grow



Jet black starlit
midnight rolls

I am down in the garden where I let go

Here on the
surface the earth looks round

But it's a godless city of cold flat
ground



Damn this valley

Damn this cold

Take so long to
let me know

It's plant and reap and plow and sow

But tell me will it
grow
