Country Roots (Jones, Powell)
I got a pretty good feeling i'm calling in sick tomorrow
I'm only half way through
This homemade brew
And it's gonna push me over the line
So if the sun shines through my window
Or if the sky fills up with rain
It don't trouble my mind
I'll leave it all behind
With every other sip that I take
You've got to water your country roots
Grandpa used to say
Dig in deep to the dirt at your feet
Listen to the banjo play
You've got to
Plant your seed in a song
Put on your dancing boots
Gonna grow sky high on pappy's moonshine
When you water your country roots
I wake up every morning
With a headache in chicago
Hammering time
At the construction site
Doing what i'm told to do
But when the boss man slips away
I get myself a tiny little taste
And I'm right back home where I belong
Back to my country roots
You got to water my country roots
My grandpa used to say
Dig in deep to the dirt at your feet
Listen to the banjo play
You've got to
Plant your seed in a song
Put on your dancing boots
Gonna grow sky high on pappy's moonshine
When you water your country roots
