American Dirt

Green on my jeans

Rip in my shirt

Two outs down in the bottom of the third

I stole home plate

And it covered my face when I slid head first

In American dirt

This is for the middle of nowhere

Tall corn grows there

In rows that go for miles

This is for first generation

Dreams in the makin'

Chasin' a chance for a better life

Here's to mud on your boots

Puttin' red, white and blue

Roots in God's green earth

In American dirt

Four Goodyears kickin' it up

Paintin' both sides of my pickup truck

Me and her ridin' round

Gonna lay a blanket down on some sacred ground

This is for the middle of nowhere

Tall corn grows there

In rows that go for miles

This is for first generation

Dreams in the makin'

Chasin' a chance for a better life

Here's to mud on your boots

Puttin' red, white and blue

Roots in God's green earth

In American dirt

Yeah, American dirt

American dirt

Yeah, American dirt

American dirt

This is for the middle of nowhere

Tall corn grows there

In rows that go for miles

This is for first generation

Dreams in the makin'

Chasin' a chance for a better life

Here's to mud on your boots

Puttin' red, white and blue

Roots in God's green earth

In American dirt

American dirt

Yeah, American dirt

American dirt
