[Intro]
The roots underneath my boots stay grounded
The roots underneath my boots stay grounded
[Verse 1]
Where'd I get my accent from?
How'd I learn to drink like that?
I get the [?] from my momma
I got the backbone from my dad
There's a whole lot to who I am
But that map dot I grew up in
[Chorus]
Is the Tennessee side to me
A little more country in the way I speak
Just a little more sweet up in my tea
Don't mean I'm gonna sugarcoat anything
The roots underneath my boots stay grounded
And I ain't ever leaving home without 'em
So wherever I go there's always gonna be
A Tennessee side, the Tennessee side to me
(The roots underneath my boots stay grounded, grounded)
[Verse 2]
I could be in the city somewhere
Chase a dream all the way to L.A
A half rise overlooking Times Square
Or settle down a thousand miles away
Well there's a part of me that'll always be the same
Something deep down you're never gonna change
[Chorus]
The Tennessee side to me
A little more country in the way I speak
Just a little more sweet up in my tea
Don't mean I'm gonna sugarcoat anything
The roots underneath my boots stay grounded
And I ain't ever leaving home without 'em
So wherever I go there's always gonna be
A Tennessee side, the Tennessee side to me
A Tennessee side, the Tennessee side to me
[Bridge]
No waiting long but I bet I'm right
Heaven's gonna look a whole lot like
The Tennessee side, yeah the Tennessee side
[Chorus]
The Tennessee side to me
A little more country in the way I speak
Just a little more sweet up in my tea
Don't mean I'm gonna sugarcoat anything
The roots underneath my boots stay grounded
And I ain't ever leaving home without 'em
So wherever I go there's always gonna be
A Tennessee side, the Tennessee side to me
A Tennessee side, the Tennessee side to me
A Tennessee side, the Tennessee side to me
(The roots underneath my boots stay grounded, grounded)
(The roots underneath my boots stay grounded, grounded)
