lyrics

Well child you've been running just to run out your time
Ain't no kind of money should keep you in this town
Where everyone's racing just to chase a dollar sign
Just trying to get by

(chorus)
Give me, the sweet dream
Of country livin'
Homegrown everything
Dirt roads and tall trees

Simple folks leading simple lives
Might sound like a joke, but baby ask yourself why child
Something in your soul knows it just feels right
Taking your time

(chorus)
Give me, the sweet dream
Of country livin'
Homegrown everything
Cornbread and sweet tea
Hey!

Wake up in the morn, working the land
Got everything you own by your own two hands
Yeah there's something sacred in the breath to survive
You feel so alive...yeah!

(chorus)
Give me, the sweet dream
Of country livin'
Homegrown everything
Dirt roads and tall trees
