"The Dirt" lyrics

"The Dirt"

The dirt you been pushin' it on that John Deere since you were sixteen
Work, you ain't afraid of it, it's what you make of it
And the proofs there on your shirt
And your boots it's where we put these red clay roots

I'll be loving you till I'm pushin' up daisies
Am I gonna stick around boy
Ain't no doubts or maybes
When I hold on, I'm stubborn and strong
It's just how this heart works
If you wanna know when I'll ever be over you
It'll be when I'm under the dirt

I'll brush it off my back when we get mad
And say some words that hurt
Cause the bigger picture is only got so long to live
On this side of the dirt

I'll be loving you till I'm pushin' up daisies
Am I gonna stick around boy
Ain't no doubts or maybes
When I hold on, I'm stubborn and strong
It's just how this heart works
If you wanna know when I'll ever be over you
It'll be when I'm under the dirt
The dirt

It's gonna keep steady just like it is now
A flame that keeps burnin' till the stars burn out

I'll be loving you till I'm pushin' up daisies
Am I gonna stick around boy
Ain't no doubts or maybes
When I hold on, I'm stubborn and strong
It's just how this heart works
If you wanna know when I'll ever be over you
It'll be when I'm under the dirt
Till I'm under the dirt
