Roots in This Ground - Matt Stell

There's a truck in this field a fire in the pit

Beer in the cans skoal in the spit

Some tan on her legs breeze in her hair

Out in the skirts and don't in the care

There's a dot on a map with your last name on it

'Cause the cotton and your granddaddy grew up on it

A little piece of heaven you got you a sliver

'Tween the top of the hill and a bank on the river

Keep the wild in your hair and the pedal to the floor

'Til the night your forever walks through that door

'Cause the pretty girl's gonna put the settle in your down

And roots in this ground

She's the take in your chance the song in your cab

The beat in your heart the slow in your dance

When it comes to have no doubts she's your better

She's the yes when you ask for a one-knee forever

On a dot on a map with your last name on it

'Cause the cotton and your granddaddy grew up on it

A little piece of heaven you got you a sliver

'Tween the top of the hill and a bank on the river

Keep the wild in your hair and the pedal to the floor

'Til the night your forever walks through that door

'Cause the pretty girl's gonna put the settle in your down

And roots in this ground

Oh roots in this ground

She'll be your swing on the porch when the day is done

'Til there's no more sets in the sun

And there's a stone in the field

With your last name on it

With you and your granddaddy lookin' down on it

From a little piece of heaven where you got you a sliver

'Tween the top of the hill and a bank on the river

Waitin' on that angel to walk through the door

You're lookin' down prayin' and thankin' the good Lord

For the pretty girl that put the settle in your down

And roots in this ground

And roots in this ground
