1.Be careful what you sow,boys!
For seed will surely grow,boys!
The rain will splash,The clouds will darken,And the sunshine flash;And the boy who sows good seed to-day Shall reap the crop to-morrow.
2.Be careful what you sow,girls!
For every seed will grow,girls!
Where you cannot know,Yet in sun and in shadeIt will surely growAnd the girl who sows good seen to-day Shall reap the crop to-morrow.
3.Be careful what you sow,boys!
For the seeds will surely grow,boys!
You must reap the harvest By-and-by;
4.Be careful what you sow,girls!
For all the bad will grow,girls And the girl who now,With a careless hand,Is scattering thistlesOver the land,Must know that whatever she sows to-day,She must reap the same to-morrow.
