Daddy's in the shed getting the lawnmower started
Mamma's in back pulling weeds from the garden
Late July and the sun's beating down I know
Thirty-five years in the factory
A lifetime of love and family
Writing your own legacy I know
Oh oh oh, wherever I go
I'm rooted in your sweet Ohio soil
When you plant make sure you water
Say your prayers, read your Bible
It's not what you are but who you are I know
Whatever life brings you, it'll be ok
We're always just one call away
Say the things you need to say I know
Oh oh oh, wherever I go
I'm rooted in your sweet Ohio soil
Time's getting thin, ticking away
It's getting late, so I can't wait to tell you what you mean to me
You're everything
Oh oh oh, wherever I go
I'm rooted in your sweet Ohio soil
Oh oh oh, wherever I go
I'm rooted in your sweet Ohio soil
