Lyrics

I grew up where the red clay runs deep and wide Dusty roads and the fields stretching either side The pines grow high where the mockingbirds fly Where freedom's just a reason to get by We ain't got much but we got what we need A family that fights when the world makes you bleed We lost some along the way empty chairs at the table But we hold on tighter 'cause that's what keeps us stable Blood runs deeper than the water in the creek We carry each other when our legs get weak When the harvest fails and the storm rolls in We stand together 'cause that's how we've always been The work is hard but it keeps me alive Sweat on my brow from sunrise till five This land don't give nothing you don't earn But every lesson out here is one you learn We've watched good people leave before their time But they're still here in every hill we climb Their voices echo in the choices that we make Their strength runs through us with every breath we take Blood runs deeper than the water in the creek We carry each other when our legs get weak When the harvest fails and the storm rolls in We stand together 'cause that's how we've always been Blood runs deeper than the water in the creek We carry each other when our legs get weak When the harvest fails and the storm rolls in We stand together 'cause that's how we've always been
