Going Back to My Roots

Zippin' up my boots, goin' back to my roots To the place of my birth, back down to earth Not talkin' 'bout the roots in the land I'm talkin' 'bout the roots in the man Zippin' up my boots, goin' back to my roots I'm homeward bound, got my head turned around Goin' back to find myself I can't live with nobody else Who's living in the world and not be seen Goin' back, goin' back right there an' be me Not talkin' for riches I've had all the time Finding out happiness is just a state of mind Just a state of mind Zippin' up my boots, goin' back to my roots To the place of my birth, back down to earth, yes Not talkin' 'bout the roots in the land I'm talkin' 'bout the roots in the man, yes Zippin' up my boots, getting back to the roots 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 It's not black, it's not white It's not red, it's not yellow It's not black, it's not white It's not red, it's not yellow It's not black, it's not white It's not red, it's not yellow It's down to earth, it's down to earth It's down to earth, it's down to earth It's not red, it's not white It's not yellow, it's not black It's not red, it's not white It's not yellow, it's not black...
