作词 : Jordan Davis/Jacob Davis/Matt Jenkins/Josh Jenkins 作曲 : Jordan Davis/Jacob Davis/Matt Jenkins/Josh Jenkins Few days before he turned 80 He was sitting out back in a rocker He said "What you been up to lately?" I told him chasing a dollar And in between sips of coffee He poured this wisdom out Said "If you want my two cents on making a dollar count Buy dirt Find the one you can't live without Get a ring, let your knee hit the ground Do what you love but call it work And throw a little money in the plate at church Send your prayers up and your roots down deep Add a few limbs to your family tree And watch their pencils marks, and the grass in the yard All grow up 'Cause the truth about it is it all goes by real quick You can't buy happiness But you can buy dirt" Before you get caught on that ladder Let me tell you what it's all about Find you a few things that matter That you can put a fence around And then he laid it out Buy dirt Find the one you can't live without Get a ring, let your knee hit the ground Do what you love but call it work And throw a little money in the plate at church Send you prayers up and your roots down deep And add a few limbs to your family tree And watch their pencils marks, and the grass in the yard All grow up 'Cause the truth about it is it all goes by real quick You can't buy happiness But you can buy dirt You can buy dirt And thank the good Lord for it 'Cause He ain't makin' any more of it So buy dirt Find the one you can't live without Get a ring, let your knee hit the ground Do what you love but call it work And throw a little money in the plate at church Send your prayers up and your roots down deep Add a few limbs to your family tree Watch their pencils marks And the grass in the yard All grow up 'Cause the truth about it is It all goes by real quick You can't buy happiness But you can buy dirt
