"Treat Me Like Dirt" lyrics

The first thing on your mind wakin' up with the sun
Is checkin' on that field, yeah waterin' that dust
You know what it needs, give it everything it wants
You won't leave that holy ground, no matter what

There ain't a storm that we can't stand
If you love me like you love that land

Treat me like dirt 'cause you treat dirt like gold
Keep me all over you from your head to your steel toes
I wanna be the place you call "home"
And lay down some roots, watch that family tree grow

Rain or shine, boy, show up, put in the work
Give it your life, 'cause you know what it's worth
I know it sounds crazy but, baby
Treat me like dirt

You look at me like that back road that ain't been paved
Your one way to freedom end of a long hot day
A sweet slice of Heaven you can't live without
So, you put your name on it and pass it on down

Treat me like dirt 'cause you treat dirt like gold
Keep me all over you from your head to your steel toes
I wanna be the place you call "home"
And lay down some roots, watch that family tree grow

Rain or shine, boy, show up, put in the work
Give it your life, 'cause you know what it's worth
I know it sounds crazy but, baby
Treat me like dirt

Oh. Treat me like dirt
If they ain't from where we're from
They won't understand
I wanna be the whole world in your hands

Treat me like dirt 'cause you treat dirt like gold
Keep me all over you from your head to your steel toes
I wanna be the place you call "home"
And lay down some roots, watch that family tree grow

Rain or shine, boy, show up, put in the work
Give it your life, 'cause you know what it's worth
I know it sounds crazy but, baby
Treat me like dirt
(Treat me like, treat me like)

Baby, treat me like dirt
(Treat me like, treat me like)
Treat me like dirt
