Inspired by and recorded at the Woodford Planting Festival, Queensland Australia.

lyrics

Let's Plant Some Trees
Let's plant some trees
nice and big and shady all covered in leaves
They're good for the air
They're good for the ground
I just wanna see trees growing all over town
So let's plant some trees
Today

Let's plant some trees
Hip hip hooray
‘Cos they may grow much bigger than you some day
The best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago
But the second best time is right now, so let's go!
Let's plant some trees
Today.

Let's plant some trees
For people we don't even know
Cos they'll bring everybody joy as they watch them grow
If you get down on your knees
And plant you some trees
Well they may still be here
In many hundreds of years
You could climb, you could hide
You could live right inside
Ride a high-line and fly
And feel the deepest of pride
So let's plant some trees
Today!
