Dig Your Roots

Yeah, I grew up ten minutes from the sticks

Ten minutes from the beach

And there ain't a Bible verse, y'all

I ain't heard a preacher preach

Mom and Dad up in the bleachers

Screaming while I pitch

B&D up on the speakers

While I'm riding 'round town with my best friends

Ain't life like a whirlwind?

One second I'm playing checkers with Grandma

Then my world ends

I used to hear my granddaddy say, "Before it's too late"

You gotta dig your roots 'fore the sun goes down

Show some love back to your hometown

Fall in love, plant some seeds

Carve some names in the family tree

Raise your kids, love your wife

Put God first just to live your life

Yeah, I think I'm gonna go and get a little more dirt on my boots

You gotta dig your roots

You dig 'em, you love 'em

You gotta put 'em in the ground for someone

Yeah, I'm a long haired, tattooed feather in the wind

Yeah, a good ol' boy just like my old man

Every night when I'm singing, I know he's looking down

Up there next to Pawpaw, got the best seats in the house

When I close my eyes, I can still hear him say

The same thing I'm gonna tell my kids

You gotta dig your roots 'fore the sun goes down

Show some love back to your hometown

Fall in love, plant some seeds

Carve some names in the family tree

Raise your kids, love your wife

Put God first just to live your life

Yeah, I think I'm gonna go and get a little more dirt on my boots

You gotta dig your roots

I'm so proud of where I came from (It's every part of me)

This town is who I am (My name's on every street)

And the way that I was raised up (Yeah, you best believe)

Made me a better man (Just like my daddy)

I'm proud of where I came from (It's every part of me)

And damn, I love this land (My name's on every street)

And the way that I was raised up (Yeah, you best believe)

Made me a better man

You gotta dig your roots 'fore the sun goes down

Show some love back to your hometown

Fall in love, plant some seeds

Carve some names in the family tree

Raise your kids, love your wife

Put God first just to live your life

Yeah, I think I'm gonna go and get a little more dirt on my boots

Yeah, I think I'm gonna go and get a little more dirt on my boots

You gotta dig your roots

You dig 'em, you love 'em

You gotta put 'em in the ground for someone

You dig 'em, you love 'em

You gotta put 'em in the ground for someone
