The Roots Of My Raising歌词完整版
The Roots of My Raising - Hag
Written by：Tommy Collins
I left the four lane highway
Took a blacktop
Seven miles
Down by the old
Country school I went to
As a child
Three miles down a gravel road I could see
The proud old home
A tribute to a way of life
That's almost come and gone
The roots of my rasing run deep
I come back for the strength that I need
And hope comes no matter how far down I sink
The roots of my raising run deep
I pulled into the driveway
Lord it sure was good to be there
And see the open door I could see that
Dad was asleep in his favorite chair
In his hand was a picture of mom
And I remembered how close they were
So I just turned away I didn't want to wake him
Spoil his dreams of her
A christian mom who had the strength
For life the way she did
Then to pull that apron off and do the charleston
For us kids
Dad a quiet man who's gentle voice was seldom heard
Who could borrow money at the bank
Simply on his word
The roots of my raisin' run deep
I come back
For the strength that I need
And hope comes no matter how far down I sink
The roots of my raising run deep
The roots of my raising run deep
