Up and down the roads we go,
|
Tearing up the ground we saw
|
With corn and beans and all,
|
Yeah, man, it was hot.
|
|
And I learned not to beg no more
|
When we drove by that country store
|
When grampa would say what you need it for?
|
Ain't got nothing we ain't got.
|
|
I couldn't tell that old man nothing
|
He was backwards to the bone
|
He said a¢æ©«let me tell you something, boy,
|
If there's something I want
|
I'll grow my own,
|
Yeah, all I need is g.o.d. to blast the seeds I've sown
|
And pray for a little rain.a¢æ?
|
And my daddy used to say to me
|
a¢æ©«son, me, as a kid, had a little but yet I liveda¢æ?
|
If you think you know what's good for me, you don't
|
I'll grow my own.
|
|
As long as school keeps washing brains
|
I'm out to ride that gravy train
|
And teaching kids that there just ain't
|
No God up in the sky.
|
|
As long as they say guns are bad
|
And you don't need no mom and dad
|
Sex is just some fun you have
|
And love is all a lie.
|
|
I pray for all those kids you raised
|
In my hard work, a dime
|
But unless you change your crazy ways
|
You ain't raising mine.
|
|
I'll grow my own,
|
Yeah, all I need is g.o.d. to blast the seeds I've sown
|
And pray for a little rain.
|
Yeah, my daddy used to say me
|
a¢æ©«son, me as a kid, had a little and yet I liveda¢æ?
|
If you think you know what's good for them, you don't
|
Then, I'll grow my own.
|
Yes, I will.
|
|
You live in movies, you're like a scene,
|
And it's the politicians, I just don't believe a¢æ?em
|
You want my money, you want my freedom
|
You want my rights but imma fight like hell to keep a¢æ?em.
|
You want my sweat, you want my blood,
|
You want my daughters and my son.
|
|
I'll grow my own,
|
Yeah, all I need is g.o.d. to blast the seeds I've sown
|
And pray for a little rain.
|
Yeah, my daddy used to say me
|
a¢æ©«son, me as a kid, had a little and yet I liveda¢æ?
|
If you think you know what's good for them, you don't.
|
Yeah, the best thing you can do is leave us alone
|
And I'll grow my own.
|
Yeah, I'll grow my own.
