Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Ay, what makes a tree grow?

Na, na, na, na

Ay, what makes a tree grow?

[Verse 2]

Ay, I wonder how a tree can grow

Na, na, na, na

There's many things that make it possible

I wonder how a tree can grow

Na, na, na, na

There's many things that make it possible

[Verse 3]

First thing's first, start with the seed

The very beginning of every tree

They come in many shapes, that's square and brown

Some fall from the trees, some we plant in the ground

[Verse 4]

Next on the list, look at your toes

Right below them is what makes the tree grow

Sometimes it's brown or the color of oil

Guess what it is? Soil

[Verse 5]

Soil is important, I'll explain why

Without it the roots have nowhere to lie

A cozy little bed for the new tree ends

And the place where they end, their trees life spend

[Verse 6]

These are just a few of the elements

Important to a tree's existence

There's many, many more that we present

But first everybody sing the chorus

[Verse 7]

I wonder how a tree can grow

Na, na, na, na

There's many things that make it possible

[Verse 8]

Next on the list, look to the sky

There's two elements that we can't deny

The sun is one, rain is another

And neither one is more important than the other

[Verse 9]

First clouds form, the rain comes down

The water then quenches the thirst of the ground

Spreading nutrients and H20

More elements that help the tree grow

[Verse 10]

The clouds then spread and the sun comes out

This helps the seeds begin to sprout

The tree starts small, no bigger than this

And the sun helps it grow through photosynthesis

[Verse 11]

A year goes by, here comers spring

The tree begins flowering

The flowers sprout and then we wait

For bees and insects to pollinate

[Verse 12]

Each and every flower on the tree

Butterflies, birds, all so healthy

Time goes by, the flowers change

They start too look a little bit strange

[Verse 13]

Some of the flowers they turn to fruit

Then some of the fruit falls to the ground

The fruits have seeds that get spread round

The seeds are in growing process again

[Verse 14]

I wonder how a tree can grow

Na, na, na, na

There's many things that make it possible

I wonder how a tree can grow

Na, na, na, na

There's many things that make it possible, ay
