Roots Run Deep

These golden sunsets sinkin' down in hunter green On the edge of the country scene Those lights are too bright down there man For a good old boy like me So when the ragin' river hits and the current's too strong I'll be driftin', livin' out my songs Where the world has life and the dogs run wild And the chickens still crow and the clay still flies With a porch still crowded with my day one friends And my brothers drive any truck I got out here So before you think you know mine and me Whoa-whoa-oh-oh just know I'm the soul of old country And all our roots run deep Roots run deep Roots run deep In the country Roots run deep Baptist church raised, parkin' lot blazed Smoked ham on the table after hearin' preacher man preach Shirts untucked, dress shoes kicked off Tan lines, tailgates, hell raisin' exhaust Through the fog, cab lights on, southern dog, get her home 'Cause her daddy's kinda crazy, owns a tractor and a farm So when the ragin' river hits and the current's too strong I'll be driftin' in the moonlight, still livin' out my songs Where the world has life and the dogs run wild And the chickens still crow and the clay still flies With a porch still crowded with my day one friends And my brothers drive any truck I got out here So before you think you know mine and me Whoa-whoa-oh-oh just know I'm the soul of old country And all our roots run deep Roots run deep All our roots run deep Mmhmm All our roots run deep Whoa-oh All our roots run deep Yeah-yeah-yeah All our roots run deep
