Puttin' Out Roots
Big city you've always been a friend to me
Boy we had fun
But sometimes the good times turn to memory
It's all been done
So don't you tempt me to stay
My future lies the opposite way
Going back to the farm
Never did anyone any harm
I want to grow things up to the sky
I want to grow wings and learn how to fly
To all the no things I'm saying goodbye
Feel like puttin' out roots again
The season for planting love is here again
It's filling me up
And I got some solid soil in you my friend
Won't waste a drop
With someone who really loves me
Living together by the shining sea
Going into the water
Makes your body feel just like it ought a
I want to see life like it's meant to be seen
I want the green life my colour is green
And for the free life I'd give up where I've been
Feel like putting out roots again
Please forward my mail
I've got to leave while the wind's in my sail.
