I got red dirt stains on my boots and jeans
Calloused fingers from my guitar strings
Wild like the wind in the tall pine trees
(and I wear, Mother Nature's ring)
Cause I got roots and I got wings
I raise my glass on a Saturday night
(Give all my love, at performance time)
I thank the Lord above on my Sunday drive
(and thank the Lord, for the weather fine)
For Daddy’s hands and Mama's dreams
(and I wear, Mother Nature's ring)
He gave me roots she gave me wings
(Cause I've got roots, and I've got wings)
He said run on love and run on life
And plant some seeds until you're tired
(Give all your love until you're tired)
And don't take anything at all for granted
She said raise your hands and raise your babies (voice)
Be yourself and never change it
(Be yourself, now, it's your choice)
Be everything you ever wanna be
(You can be anything you wanna be)
He said run on love and run on life
And plant some seeds until you're tired
(Give all your love until you're tired)
And don't take anything at all for granted
She said raise your hands and raise your babies (voice)
Be yourself and never change it
(Be yourself, now, it's your choice)
Be everything you ever wanna be
(You can be anything you wanna be)
I saddle up when I get down
Sing every night in a different (country) town
And I've got a man who wears my ring
(And I wear Mother Nature's ring)
And I got roots and I got wings
Yeah I got roots I got wings
MY VERSION
I got lingerin pain from my rehearsing
Calloused fingers from my guitar strings
But I wear, Mother Nature's ring
Cause I've got roots and I've got wings
Give all my love, at performance time,
And thank the Lord, for the weather fine,
Yes I wear Mother Nature's ring
Cause I've got roots, and I've got wings
I run on love and run on life,
Give all my love feel like I've died
I don't take anything at all for granted.
I raise my hands and raise my voice,
Can be myself, now, it's my choice,
I can be anything I want to be.
I saddle up, when I get down,
I sing my songs, in this country town,
And I wear Mother Nature's ring
Cause I got roots, and I've got wings
Yeah I've got roots, and I've got wings
