Roots
Arthur Lee Land

Sinking into chocolate brown earth,

Nourish me, I said nourish me,

Cause I’m here to stay,

No wind can blow me,

I said blow me away


The leaves are falling,

Winter shadows graying,

I’m setting down,

Setting down these roots,


I’m setting down these roots x3


Now I’m brought down to my knees,

Seeing only God can I please,

Garden spider’s spun her web,

Left it empty,

Is she dead?


I’ve been wandering these lands,

In my gypsy caravan

waiting, I said waiting,

For the lightning to strike,


I’m setting down these roots x3


Sinking into chocolate brown earth,

Nourish me, I said nourish me,

Cause I’m here to stay,

No wind can blow me,

I said blow me away


The leaves are falling,

Winter shadows graying,

I’m setting down,

Setting down these roots,


I’m setting down these roots x3
