Dig Your Roots

Yeah, I grew up 10 minutes from the sticks
10 minutes from the beach
And there aint a Bible verse y’all
I ain’t heard a preacher preach
Mom and Dad up in the bleachers
Screamin' while I pitch
Beatin' deep on the speakers
Finally ridin' around the town
With my best friends, ain’t life like a whirlwind
One second I’m playin' checkers with Grandma
Then my world ends
I used to hear my granddaddy say
Before it’s too late
You gotta dig your roots 'for the sun comes 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
Hey, I think I’m gonna go and get a little more dirt on my boots,
you gotta dig your roots
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 singin', I know he’s lookin' 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 say thing I’m gonna tell my kids
You gotta dig your roots 'for the sun comes 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
Hey, I think I’m gonna go and get a little more dirt on my boots,
you gotta dig your roots
I’m so of proud of where I came from, this town is who I am,
and the way I was raised up, made me a better man
I’m proud of where I cam from, and damn I love this land,
and the way that I was raised up, 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
Hey, 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 gtta dig your roots
