My first best friend was a 6 string
Took him with me everywhere I go
When I was 18, bought a Dodge van
Found a drummer and made the road my home
Ohh I wouldn't change a thing
It made the man I am today
My roots always keep me grounded
Roots remind me where I'm from
Even when I'm a thousand miles away from my
Roots I'm home
Every Friday you could find me
At Dixie Tavern playing with my band
We'd start the show with a round of whiskey
And play our hearts out and wished it'd never end
Ohh I wouldn't change a thing
It made the man I am today
My roots always keep me grounded
Roots remind me where I'm from
Even when I'm a thousand miles away from my
Roots I'm home
We'd get 'em singing "Don't Stop Believing"
Then follow up with a cold beer on a Friday night
Always dreaming one day we'd play with
All our heroes we cover every night
Flying high all our dreams came true
You've given me wings
And roots always keep me grounded
Roots remind me where I'm from
Even when I'm a thousand miles away from my
Roots I'm home
My roots always keep me grounded
Roots remind me where I'm from
My roots even when I'm a thousand miles away from my
Roots I'm home
Don't give up
Hold on a little longer
What don't kill you
Only makes you stronger
[x4]
Don't give up
Hold on a little longer
What don't kill you
Only gives you stronger roots
