I'll Grow My Own

Up and down the roads we go,

Tearing up the ground we sowed

With corn and beans and greens and oh,

Yeah, man, it was hot.

And I learned not to beg no more

When we'd drive by that country store

When grampa would say "what you need it for?

Ain’t got nothin' we ain’t got."

You couldn’t tell that old man nothing

He was backwoods to the bone

He'd say 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 bless the seeds I’ve sown

And pray for a little rain

Yeah my daddy was the same,

He showed me as a kid, how to live and let live

And if you think you know what’s good for me, you don’t

I’ll grow my own.

As long as schools keeps washing brains

On how 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.

Well I pray for all those kids you raise

On my hard workin' dime

But unless you change your crazy ways

You ain’t raisin' mine.

I’ll grow my own,

Yeah, all I need is G-O-D to bless the seeds I’ve sown

And pray for a little rain

Yeah my daddy was the same,

He showed me as a kid, how to live and let live

And if you think you know what’s good for them, you don’t

Man, I’ll grow my own.

Yes I will.

Your lips are movin', Hell I can see 'em

But Mr. Politician I just don’t believe ‘em

You want my money, you want my freedom

You want my rights but I'ma fight like hell to keep ‘em.

You want my sweat, you want my blood,

You want my daughters and my son.

But I’ll grow my own,

Yeah, all I need is G-O-D to bless the seeds I’ve sown

And pray for a little rain.

Yeah, my daddy was the same.

He showed me as a kid, how to live and let live

And if you think you know what’s good for us, 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.
