Here are 2 songs about a lemon tree. The first one is from an American folk music group called Peter, Paul and Mary. The second one is by a German pop group named Fools Garden. Try listening to the videos first without looking at the lyrics. How much did you understand? Now look at the lyrics (the words to the song) and listen to the song again.

PS - I had a question about the name Fools Garden? What does it mean? I don't know for sure why the band picked this name. It might have a specific meaning to them. Often bands like to pick names that sound interesting. This is a German band and in Europe people refer to the area behind their house that has grass and flowers and other plants in it as a garden. In the United States we call this a yard. A fool is someone who acts silly or is not very smart. The band used to be called Fool's Garden. With an apostrophe the meaning is a garden belonging to a fool. But later they removed the apostrophe and now go by Fools Garden. This changes the name to mean a garden that has fools in it.
