Put me down to bay when the warm sun shines
Put me down on the back roads with the buddies, I'm the man
'Til I'm gone, 'til I'm gone
Put me down to Daddy's on my grandpa's land
Dick shit dirt on my boots, a shotgun in my hand
Until I'm gone, 'til I'm gone
You the most open ground that I grew up on
It's where my soul belongs
To the good Lord, calls me home when I'm gone
Put me on a living, even-level tree
Watch the sun go down, living free as a breeze
'Til I'm gone, 'til I'm gone
Put me down yonder with youngins and bare feet
Give me an old board swinging just to let me bathe
'Til I'm gone, 'til I'm gone
You the most open ground that I grew up on
It's where my soul belongs
To the good Lord, calls me home when I'm gone
Yeah, I was born to rave, I'm born to roam
Still, I can't forget where I come from
And all the little folks that raised me
They keep me covered in the praise that saved me
You can paint me rolling along
But when you see the guitar runs out of songs
I'll be southbound, and I'm heading home
You the most open ground that I grew up on
Where my soul belongs
To the good Lord, calls me home when I'm gone
You put me down with keeping the faith that's still free
The hands stay folded, and they still believe
'Til I'm gone, 'til I'm gone
You put me down in the land of the banded knee
The good buck and good old boys like me
'Til I'm gone (gone)
You the most open ground that I grew up on
It's where my soul belongs
To the good Lord, calls me home when I'm gone
Yeah, I was born to rave, I'm born to roam
Still, I can't forget where I come from
And all the little folks that raised me
They keep me covered in the praise that saved me
You can paint me rolling along
But when this here guitar runs out of songs
I'll be southbound, and I'm heading home
You the most open ground that I grew up on
Where my soul belongs
To the good Lord, calls me home when I'm gone
Take me home
Take me home
Take me home
