Turnin' Dirt
Granddaddy spent sixty years
Ridin' on that same John Deere
And plowing' this here family ground
'Til the day they both gave out
Said boy let's take a lap
And i'd climb up on his lap
Before this here turns into yours
There somethings you need to know about
We turn rain into gold
We turn seeds into somethin'
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 was crazy 'bout, turned into a family
Now when I turn this tractor west
Start to 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
We turn seeds into somethin'
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
We turn rain into gold
We turn seeds into somethin'
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
Ridin' on that same John Deere
And plowing' this here family ground
'Til the day they both gave out
Said boy let's take a lap
And i'd climb up on his lap
Before this here turns into yours
There somethings you need to know about
We turn rain into gold
We turn seeds into somethin'
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 was crazy 'bout, turned into a family
Now when I turn this tractor west
Start to 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
We turn seeds into somethin'
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
We turn rain into gold
We turn seeds into somethin'
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
