Verse 1:
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
Screamin' while I pitch
B&D up in the speakers
While I'm ridin' round town with my
Best friends, ain't life like a whirlwind?
One second I'm playing checkers with grandma
Then my world hits
I used to hear my granddaddy say
Before it's too lateChorus:
You gotta dig your roots before 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 live your life
Hey 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)Verse 2:
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 kidsChorus:
You gotta dig your roots before 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 live your life
Hey I think I'm gonna go and get a little more dirt on my boots
You gotta dig your rootsHook:
I'm so proud of where I came from
This town is who I am
And the way that I was raised up
Made me a better man
I'm proud of where I came from
Man, I love this land
And the way that I was raised up
Made me a better manChorus:
You gotta dig your roots before 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 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 gotta dig your roots
(You dig 'em, you love 'em, you gotta put 'em in the ground for someone)
