Heiho, Let's Go and Off to Work We Go...

Heiho let’s go and off to work we go
Bring your spades I’ll bring my seeds
Heiho let’s go and off to work we go
We’ll plant a tree we’ll watch it grow
Heiho let’s go and off to work we go
You’ll whistle your song I’ll call the mother bird
To build her nest upon our homely leaves

One two three four look baby the tree has grown
The sweet little birdies baby they’re now singing
Let’s hop on now the branches baby they’re so inviting
Grab on your guitar let’s sit under its shadows
I’ll catch the falling leaves you’ll smell the sweet breeze

Heiho let’s go and off to work we go
Bring your spades I’ll bring my seeds
Heiho let’s go and off to work we go
We’ll plant a tree we’ll watch it grow
Heiho let’s go and off to work we go
You’ll whistle your song I’ll call the mother bird
To build her nest upon our homely leaves

What now baby? Now the tree has grown
Then what baby? That we made it great
If I climb the tree, baby would it be just because
I care to take care of the birdies baby
Which is of course you can see it as
Another heiho let’s go and off to work we go?
If I hug the tree ten times a day
Baby would it be just because
I care to warm up the tree
Which is of course you can see it as
Another heiho let’s go and off to work we go?
If I carry home its falling leaves each night
And stuff them inside my pillow to fill my lung with their scent
Baby would it be just because
I want to preserve its trinkets
Which of course you can see it as
Another heiho let’s go and off to work we go?

Heiho let’s go and off to work we go
Bring your spades I’ll bring my seeds
Heiho let’s go and off to work we go
We’ll plant a tree we’ll watch it grow
Heiho let’s go and off to work we go
You’ll whistle your song I’ll call the mother bird
