Turnin' Dirt

歌詞

Granddaddy spent sixty years Ridin' on that same John Deere And plowin' this here family ground 'Til the day they both gave out He said, "Boy, let's take a lap" I'd climb up on his lap "Before this here turns into yours, there's some things you need to know about We turn rain into gold, and we turn seeds into somethin' We turn hard work into cold, hard cash, but that ain't nothin' He turned water into wine, He makes this world turn on a dime Yeah, the closest you and I can get to God down here on Earth Is turnin' dirt" Well, when my turn came around And I laid my own roots down Me and that girl I's crazy 'bout turned into a family Now when I turn this tractor west I can smell the long cut on his breath now Now, I tell his great grandson the same thing he told me "We turn rain into gold, and we turn seeds into somethin' We turn hard work into cold, hard cash, but that ain't nothin' He turned water into wine, He makes this world turn on a dime Yeah, the closest you and I can get to God down here on Earth Is turnin' dirt" Turnin' dirt will turn you into a better man The same dirt that's here on mine was on his hands So we turn rain into gold, and we turn seeds into somethin' We turn hard work into cold, hard cash, but that ain't nothin' He turned water into wine, He makes this world turn on a dime Yeah, the closest you and I can get to God down here on Earth Is turnin' dirt Turnin' dirt
