[Verse]
Five acres of turnips
Ripe for the picking
The sweat and the blood
Oughta be enough
To keep me going
[Verse]
A heart and a trowel
The will to keep spinning
Faith that s untamed
A prayer for the rain
So the rose will keep growing
[Chorus]
Don t take it for granted (Ooh)
Reap what you planted (Ooh)
Generations of shame (Ooh)
In my granddaddy s name (Ooh)
[Verse]
Tear in the screen door
Lettin the flies in
The radio s on
The sweetest of songs
But I know they re lying
[Chorus]
Secrets just simmer (Ooh)
Momma makes dinner (Ooh)
Then we all gather round (Ooh)
Another hole in the ground (Ooh)
[Instrumental]
[Bridge]
Somethin beautiful comes out of this dirt
Something better than him at his worst
One at a time
Dead on the vine
[Verse]
Five acres of turnips
Ripe for the picking
The sweat and the blood
Oughta be enough
To keep me going
