Turnin' Dirt Video (MV)

Granddaddy spent sixty years
Ridin' on that same John Deere
And plowin' this here family ground
'Til the day they both gave out
He said, "Boy, let's take a lap"
I'd climb up on his lap
"Before this here turns into yours, there's some things you need to know about

We turn rain into gold, and we turn seeds into somethin'
We turn hard work into cold, hard cash, but that ain't nothin'
He turned water into wine, He makes this world turn on a dime
Yeah, the closest you and I can get to God down here on Earth
Is turnin' dirt"

Well, when my turn came around
And I laid my own roots down
Me and that girl I's crazy 'bout turned into a family
Now when I turn this tractor west
I can smell the long cut on his breath now
Now, I tell his great grandson the same thing he told me

"We turn rain into gold, and we turn seeds into somethin'
We turn hard work into cold, hard cash, but that ain't nothin'
He turned water into wine, He makes this world turn on a dime
Yeah, the closest you and I can get to God down here on Earth
Is turnin' dirt"

Turnin' dirt will turn you into a better man
The same dirt that's here on mine was on his hands

So we turn rain into gold, and we turn seeds into somethin'
We turn hard work into cold, hard cash, but that ain't nothin'
He turned water into wine, He makes this world turn on a dime
Yeah, the closest you and I can get to God down here on Earth
Is turnin' dirt
