"No Roots" lyrics

"No Roots"
(originally by Alice Merton)

One, two, three, four

I like digging holes and hiding things inside them
When I grow old, I hope I won't forget to find them
'Cause I've got memories and travel like gypsies in the night (Woo)
I build a home and wait for someone to tear it down
Then pack it up in boxes, head for the next town
'Cause I've got memories and travel like gypsies in the night

And a thousand times, I've seen this road
A thousand times (One, two)

I've got no roots, but my home was never on the ground
I've got no roots, but my home was never on the ground
I've got no roots
I've got no roots (Alright)
I've got no roots, but my home was never on the ground
I've got no roots, but my home was never on the ground
I've got no roots
I've got no roots (Bring it in)

Hey,I like standing still, but that's just a wishful plan
Ask me where I come from, I'll say a different land
I've got memories and travel like gypsies in the night (Alright)
I count the gates and numbers, then play the guessing game
It's just the place that changes, the rest is still the same
I've got memories and travel like gypsies in the night (Alright)

And a thousand times, I've seen this road
A thousand times (One, two)

I've got no roots, but my home was never on the ground
I've got no roots, but my home was never on the ground
I've got no roots
I've got no roots (Hey, hey)
I've got no roots, but my home was never on the ground
I've got no roots, but my home was never on the ground
I've got no roots
I've got no roots (Everybody sing it, one two, three, four)

I like digging holes, hiding things inside them
When I grow old, I won't forget to find them
