Granddaddy worked for the steel mill
That brought the boom into rivertown
Fed nine mouths with blue collar hands
Earned his keep by the sweat of his brow

Home was the foothills of Appalachia
Where country's more than music it's the way of life
And same as the bluegrass growin' in the holler
And the moonshine…Grandaddy he was

Homegrown
Proud, flag waving, patriot son
This heartland's backbone
Homegrown
Persevering, God fearing
America's own

Daddy joined up no one forced his hand
Shipped out to fight in Vietnam
Came back a Purple Heart, a forever changed man
But he still loves Uncle Sam…’Cause my daddy he’s

(Chorus)

Lord let me live a simple life
I pray for fertile fields and open skies
And to lay my head down every night still free
Lord keep me

(Chorus)
