I Got Roots

If you knew it wasn't big enough for both of us

And it'd all end in a cloud of dust

If you knew she's everything I'd ever need

Why'd you raise her here just to let her leave

She put miles on that highway

I put turn rows on a tractor

She had something to chase down

I had nothing to chase after

You put stars in her eyes

And this red dirt on my boots

I guess she got wings

And I got roots

Yeah, I'm thankful for the hand I's delt

Cause if I'd never held her I'd a never felt

That love them days we had together

I still pray for her just like the weather

Cause she put miles on that highway

I put turn rows on a tractor

She had something to chase down

And I had nothing to chase after

You put stars in her eyes

And this red dirt on my boots

I guess she got wings

And I got roots

If you knew she's everything I'd ever need

Why'd you raise her here just to let her leave

Cause she put miles on that highway

I put turn rows on a tractor

She had something to chase down

And I had nothing to chase after

You put stars in her eyes

And this red dirt on my boots

I guess she got wings

And I got roots
