Soil Songs (Rock 'N Soil)

The Antigo Silt Loam Song
F.D. Hole 1989

1) Antigo, a soil to know
Wisconsin's crops and livestock grow:
and forests, too, on Antigo:
and forests too, on Antigo

2) Great Lake's region, fertile land;
Glaciers spread both clay and sand;
Winds blew silt, then forests grew,
Giving soils their brownish hue.

3) Great Lakes region, fertile land,
You strengthen us in heart and hand;
Each slope, each flower, each wild bird call
Procaims a unity in all.

4) Plant a seed and pull a weed;
The soil will give us all we need
And plenty more, so birds may feed
And plenty more, so birds may feed

5) Of all the crops, true peace is tops;
Its soil is love that never stops
It blesses sand and water drops;
It blesses sand and water drops.
