Pull Up the Roots Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hello again
Yes, indeed my friend
I can tell
Gonna get together again
I could be right, I could be wrong
I feel nice when I sing this song
And I don't mind
Whatever happens is fine

[Chorus 1]
Baby likes to keep on playing
What do I know, what do I know?
Wilder than the place we live in
I'll take you there, I'll take you there
I don't mind some slight disorder
Pull up the roots, pull up the roots
And I know every living creature
Pull up the roots, pull up the roots

[Verse 2]
And I know you
I understand what you do
Yes, indeed
I put the hat on my head
Come out of your mess, bring yourself in
I feel nice when I start to sing
And I can see
Everyone else is like me

[Chorus 2]
Towns that disappeared completely
Pull up the roots, pull up the roots
Miles and miles of endless highway
Pull up the roots, pull up the roots
Colored lights and shiny curtains
I'll take you there, I'll take you there
Everything has been forgiven
Pull up the roots, pull up the roots

[Bridge]
Well, I have a good time when I go out of my mind
And it's a wonderful place, and I can't wait to be there
And I hear beautiful sounds coming out of the ground
Gonna take us a while, but we'll go hundreds of times

[Chorus 3]
Baby likes to keep on playing
What d'you know? What d'you know?
Wilder than the place we live in
I'll take you there, I'll take you there
And I don't mind some slight disorder
Pull up the roots, pull up the roots
And no more time for talkin' it over
Pull up the roots, pull up the roots

[Outro]
Well, I have a good time when I go out of my mind
And it's a wonderful place, and I can't wait to be there
And I hear beautiful sounds coming out of the ground
Someone must have been high, but I guess it's alright
