Lyrics
I sowed a seed
Planting a seed
Underneath the oak tree
Location of seed planting
I trod it in
Packing the seed into the soil
With my boots I trampled it down
Compacting the soil with boots
Grow
Emphasizing the desire for growth
Grow
-Grow
-I sowed a rose
Planting a rose
Underneath the oak grove
Location of rose planting
With my boots on the ground
Planting with boots on the ground
Into the earth I trampled it down
Pressing the rose into the earth
Grow
Reiteration of the desire for growth
Grow
-Grow
-Teach me how to...
Seeking guidance or knowledge
Teach me how to...
-Teach me, Mommy
Specifically addressing a maternal figure
How to grow
Desire to learn how to grow
How to catch someone's fancy
Learning to attract someone's interest
Underneath the twisted oak grove
Location of growth, emphasizing a challenging environment
