Zippin' up my boots, goin' back to my roots, yeah,
To the place of my birth, back down to earth.
I've been standing in the rain,
Drenched and soaked with pain,
Tired of shortime benefits
And being exposed to the elements.
I'm homeward bound, got my head turned around.
Zippin' up my boots, goin' back to my roots, yeah,
To the place of my birth, back down to earth.
Ain't talk in' 'bout no roots in the land,
Talkin' 'bout no roots in the man.
I feel my spirit gettin' old,
It's time to recharge my soul.
I'm zippin' up my boots, goin' back to my roots.
To the place of my birth, back down to earth.
