Zippin' up my boots
Goin' back to my roots
To the place of my birth
Back down to earth.
I've been standing in the rain
Drenched and soaked with pain
Tired of short time benefits
And being exposed to the elements.
I'm homeward bound
Got my head turned around.
Zippin' up my boots
Goin' back to my roots
To the place of my birth
Back down to earth.
Ain't talkin' 'bout no roots in the land
Talkin' 'bout the roots in the man.
I feel my spirit gettin' old
It's time to recharge my soul
I'm zippin' up my boots
Goin' back to my roots
To the place of my birth
Back down to earth.
Zippin' up my boots
Goin' back to my roots.
To the place of my birth
Back down to earth.
I'm homeward bound,
got my head turned around, oh oh oh going home,
I'm coming home going home, going home,
right to be loved not for my riches that I've got the time finding
out happiness is just a state of mind just a state of mind,
just a state of mind just a state of mind, yeah zippin' up my boots,
goin' back to my roots to the place of my birth,
get on down to the earth
