Testo I’ll Grow My Own

Testo I’ll Grow My Own

Up and down the rows we go
Tearin' up the ground we sowed
With corn and beans and greens
And oh yeah man it was hot

And I learned not to beg no more
When we drive by that country store
When Grandpa say what you need it for
They ain't got nothin' we ain't got

You couldn't tell that old man nothin'
He was backwoods to the bone
He said let me tell ya somethin' boy
If there's somethin' I want

Chorus:
I'll grow my own
Yeah all I need is G-O-D to bless the seeds I've sown
And pray for a little rain
Yeah my Daddy was the same
He showed me as a kid
How to live and let live
And if you think you know
What's good for me you don't
I'll grow my own

As long as school's keep washin' brains
On how to ride that gravy train
And teachin' kids that there just ain't no God up in the sky
As long as they say guns are bad
And you don't need no mom and dad
And sex is just some fun you have
And love is all a lie
I pray for all those kids you raise
On my hard workin' dime
But unless you change your crazy ways
You ain't raisin' mine

Chorus

Your lips are movin'
Yeah I can see 'em
But Mr. Politician I just don't believe 'em
You want my money
You want my freedom
You want my rights but I'm gonna fight like hell to keep 'em
You want my sweat, you want my blood
You want my daughters and my sons

But I'll grow my own
Yeah all I need is G-O-D to bless the seeds I've sown
And pray for a little rain
Yeah my Daddy was the same
He showed me as a kid
How to live and let live
And if you think you know
What's good for us you don't
Yeah the best thing you can do is leave us alone
I'll grow my own
Yeah I'll grow my own
