American Dirt

Green on my jeans
Rip in my shirt
Two outs down in the bottom of the third
I stole home plate, it covered my face
When I slid head first
In American dirt

This is for the middle of nowhere
Tall corn grows there in rows that go for miles
This is for first generation, dreams in the makin'
Chasin' a chance for a better life
Here's to mud on your boots
Puttin' red, white and blue
Roots in God's green earth
American dirt

Four good years kickin' it up
Paintin' both sides of my pickup truck
Me and her ridin' round
Gonna lay a blanket down on some sacred ground

This is for the middle of nowhere
Tall corn grows there in rows that go for miles
This is for first generation, dreams in the makin'
Chasin' a chance for a better life
Here's to mud on your boots
Puttin' red, white and blue
Roots in God's green earth

American dirt
Yeah, American dirt
American dirt
American dirt
American dirt

This is for the middle of nowhere
Tall corn grows there in rows that go for miles
This is for first generation, dreams in the makin'
Chasin' a chance for a better life
Here's to mud on your boots
Puttin' red, white and blue
Roots in God's green earth

American dirt
American dirt
Yeah, American dirt
American dirt
