Upchurch - My Roots Lyrics

Let the BandPlay

I grew up on that good shit
Daddy in the backyard
Chicken pins and rows of roosters
Broken down old motor parts
Running in the woods
I pass the time with all my dirty friends
Catching snakes, and I still catch them
Now it's in a different sense
The say I'm gonna change with fame but
I don't think I change a bit
I'm anti-everything that has to
Do with selling out, bitch
They want my rebel flag gone
They want my words cleaned up
But I ain't having all that shit
You know where I stand, son

Still out here in the woods with the rednecks
Popping fucking willies, no helmet
On the road, bitch
Guns in closet make my room
Look like a bass boat
Still got a rebel flag above my bed
That's my roots for sure
That's my roots for sure
That-that's my roots for sure
Still got a rebel flag above my bed
That's my roots for sure

Southern made and southern raised
Stuck off in my southern ways
I will never change, aw yeah
That's my roots for sure
I came a long way yet I know
I got a ways to go but I wanna walk on a
Red carpet with muddy boots
Like I don't know
I'm supposed to dress up for the show
I didn't get that memo bro
I showed up to the CMA's with
Animal blood all on my clothes
I'm that redneck these boys ain't talking
'bout in all their songs
And if you wanna be real
I was raised up in a big red barn
Deep in Tennessee
On my grandpa's chicken farm
Waking up in the morning, white hat
Where's my damn alarm

Still out here in the woods with the rednecks
Popping fucking willies, no helmet
On the road, bitch
Guns in closet make my room
Look like a bass boat
Still got a rebel flag above my bed
That's my roots for sure
That's my roots for sure
That-that's my roots for sure
Still got a rebel flag above my bed
That's my roots for sure

Southern made and southern raised
Stuck off in my southern ways
I will never change, aw yeah
That's my roots for sure
(Sure, sure, sure, sure, sure
Sure, sure, sure
Sure, sure, sure, sure, sure)
That's my roots for sure
(Sure, sure, sure, sure, sure
Sure, sure, sure
Sure, sure, sure, sure, sure)
That's my roots for sure
(Sure, sure, sure, sure, sure
Sure, sure, sure
Sure, sure, sure, sure, sure)
That's my roots for sure
(Sure, sure, sure, sure, sure
Sure, sure, sure
Sure, sure, sure, sure, sure)
That's my roots for sure

Still out here in the woods with the rednecks
Popping fucking willies, no helmet
On the road, bitch
Guns in closet make my room
Look like a bass boat
Still got a rebel flag above my bed
That's my roots for sure
That's my roots for sure
That-that's my roots for sure
Still got a rebel flag above my bed
That's my roots for sure

Southern made and southern raised
Stuck off in my southern ways
I will never change, aw yeah
That's my roots for sure
