Lyrics to Roots
Now, I can say that, uh
They was not expecting this
I know a God-fearing woman that ain’t scared to get dirty
And keep it real witcha even if the truth might hurt ya
Go to church err Sunday just to hear the preacher man
And then she gone, but then she be right, uh, hold up
I know a God-fearing woman that ain’t scared to get dirty
And keep it real wit'cha even if the truth might hurt ya
Hold ya down when them hard times come
And she never let nothing come between you, God, and her purpose (Rae)
God bless thеm girls with some roots
Raised in a small town
Make thеm boys shake in their boots, yeah (yes ma'am)
Workin’ hard for the money
But still bringing home honey
A little bit of mama’s attitude
With a lot of hot mess
God bless them girls with some roots
God bless them girls with some roots (god bless)
Yeah, love this one
They don’t never give you credit when the credit is due
And you don’t have to have the compliments to know that it’s true
You walk around like you're confident in what you got goin'
Like a boss ‘cause you already know that it’s you
Work hard for the money when your pockets a drought (Yep)
Being careful with the words coming outta ya mouth
Country girl with a lil slang whenever she talk and kinda sassy(Kinda sassy)
‘Cause she know what she talkin’ about (yeah)
God bless them girls with some roots
Raised in a small town (raise it up)
Make them boys shake in their boots, yeah (yes ma'am)
Workin’ hard for the money (hard for the money)
But still bringing home honey
A little bit of mama’s attitude
With a lot of hot mess
God bless them girls with some roots
God bless them girls with some roots
C’mon on Lathan, let’s bring it to ‘em
It don’t matter who she around (Nope)
She still be the same person
In front of any crowd
Too classy to run with the fakes
And she walk like she got it going on (Oh stop it) with her own little style
God bless them girls with some roots (bless it up)
Raised in a small town (small town)
Make them boys shake in their boots, (Got them boys really shakin’) yeah (yes ma'am)
Workin’ hard for the money (workin’ hard, I see you workin’ hard for it)
But still bringing home honey (still bringin' home the honey)
A little bit of mama’s attitude
With a lot of hot mess (Yeah, I see ya right there, roots)
God bless them girls with some roots
God bless them girls with some roots
God bless them girls with some roots
They was not expecting this
I know a God-fearing woman that ain’t scared to get dirty
And keep it real witcha even if the truth might hurt ya
Go to church err Sunday just to hear the preacher man
And then she gone, but then she be right, uh, hold up
I know a God-fearing woman that ain’t scared to get dirty
And keep it real wit'cha even if the truth might hurt ya
Hold ya down when them hard times come
And she never let nothing come between you, God, and her purpose (Rae)
God bless thеm girls with some roots
