Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Rumour has it
Cops arrested good old Leroy
Nancy's cheating with the pool boy
And she found out
She might be pregnant
[Verse 2]
Rumour has it
That back behind the church on Sunday's
Bonnie's selling special brownies
It's what she does to pay the rent
[PreChorus]
It's the he said, she said, airing outtchya business
Guess folks just love getting it twisted
But behind our white picket fences
[Chorus]
We all got dirt
Everybody needs a little work
Ain't nobody's perfect
Living on God's green earth, that's for sure
Yes, some yards might look a little cleaner
Some grass might grow a little greener
But if you dig a little bit deeper
We all got dirt
[Verse 3]
Yeah, you might get
An Ivy League education
Some honorable salutation
But you ain't above speculation
[PreChorus]
Spilling tea in the kitchen or across the block
Everybody judging everybody's yards
You can fix 'em up, but underneath 'em all
[Chorus]
We all got dirt
Everybody needs a little work
Ain't nobody's perfect
Living on God's green earth, that's for sure
Some yards might look a little cleaner
Some grass might grow a little greener
But if you dig a little bit deeper
We all got dirt
Hmm, yeah
We all got dirt, oh yeah
[Bridge]
We all got dirt
It's on our boots, it's in our roots
We all got dirt
You can't shake it loose
Yeah, ain't that the truth
[Chorus]
We all got dirt
Everybody needs a little work
Ain't nobody's perfect
Living on God's green earth, that's for sure
Yeah, some yards might look a little cleaner
Some grass might grow a little greener
But if you dig a little bit deeper
We all got dirt
Hmm, we all got dirt
