WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN GOLD

The real estate man came around today

Must have heard I was in town for grandad's estate

And he parked his Benz under the old birch tree

He said, "Name your price, man, l'll get you a deal"

But not a word about grandad, not a word that was real

I guess he figured those forty acres didn't mean much to me

So I sat him down

And I set him straight

Don't show up in your suit tryna spend your money

Thinkin' you can buy whatever you're wantin'

There's memories here that can't be bought and sold

Don't show up and say that you got what I'm needin'

Don't want your money so you best get to leavin'

You'll never get your hands on this home

Oh-oh, this dirt's worth its weight in gold

Yeah, come inside I got some things to show you

These frames on the walls, they ain't just photos

Every picture here's got a story to tell

That little boy on the tractor, yeah, that's me, helping dad sow the paddock back in '93

We had our struggles but that was one hell of a year

That one of grandad plantin' that seed

Now is that big, old birch that you parked underneath

Hope you take a good look when you're driving on out of here, yeah

So don't show up in your suit tryna spend your money

Thinkin' you can buy whatever you're wantin'

There's memories here that can't be bought and sold

And don't show up and say that you got what I'm needin'

Don't want your money so you best get to leavin'

You'll never get your hands on this home

Oh-oh, this dirt's worth its weight in gold

Oh, I grab a handful of dirt in my fist

Let it pour out on the ground around me

It's where I was born and this is

Where I'II be buried

So don't show up tryna spend your money

Thinkin' you can buy whatever you're wantin'

There's memories here that can't be bought and sold

Don't show up and say that you got what I'm needin'

Don't want your money so you best get to leavin'

You'll never get your hands on this home

Oh-oh, this dirt's worth its weight in gold

Weight in gold, yeah

Weight in gold

This dirt's worth its weight in gold
