Текст песни
The real estate man came around today
Must have heard I was in town
For Grandads estate
And he parked his Benz under thta old birch tree
He said, "Name your price, man, I'll get you a deal"
But not a word 'bout my grandad, not a word that was real
I guess he figured those forty acres didn't mean much to me
So I sat him down and set him straight
Don't show up in your suit tryin' to spend your money
Thinkin' you can buy whatever you're wantin'
There's memories here that can't be bought and sold
Don't show up and say that you've got what I'm needin'
Don't want your money so you best get to leavin'
You'll never get your hands on this home
Oh-oh, This dirt's worth its weight in gold
Yeah, come inside I got somethings to show you
These frames on the wall, they ain't just photos
Every picture here's got a story to tell
That little boy on the tractor, yeah that's me
Helpin' dad sow the paddock back in '93
We had our struggles but that was one hell of a year
That one of grandad planting that seed
Now it's that big, old birch that you parked underneath
Hope you take a good look when you're driving on out of here, yeah
So don't show up in your suit tryin' to spend your money
Thinkin' you can buy whatever you're wantin'
There's memories here that can't be bought and sold
Don't show up and say that you've got what I'm needin'
Don't want your money so you best get to leavin'
You'll never get your hands on this home
Oh-oh, this dirt's worth its weight in gold
Oh, I grab a handful dirt in my fist
Let it pour out on the ground around me
It's where I was born and this is
Where I'll be buried
So don't show up tryin' to spend your money
Thinkin' you can buy whatever you're wantin'
There's memories here that can't be bought and sold
Don't show up and say that you've got what I'm needin'
Don't want your money so you best get to leavin'
You'll never get your hands on this home
Oh-oh, this dirt's worth its weight in gold
Weight in gold, yeah
Weight in gold
This dirt's worth its weight in gold
