  • Have you ever rode a dirt road with the windows rolled down
    Smelling that honeysuckle vine
    Riding for no reason and you're lookin' not seeing
    A house but every few miles
    Have you ever been rockin' on the porch with your daddy
    Watchin' the world turn slow
    That's where country grows

    It's in the hearts of those who know what life's all about
    It's laying your head on your pillow and fallin' to sleep proud
    You bow your head to Jesus 'cause He's where it all comes from
    And you know He'll forgive you for the wrong you've done
    Ooh, it's in the earth and the church and the words that we speak slow
    That's where country grows

    Have you ever seen a young boy open up the door
    For an old lady walkin' in slow
    Or a shoe polish heart on a second hand car
    Saying "Shelly loves Billy" on the window
    Have you ever heard a mama cry saying goodbye
    But she knows her soldiers gotta go, oh
    That's where country grows

    It's in the hearts of those who know what life's all about
    It's laying your head on your pillow and fallin' to sleep proud
    You bow your head to Jesus cause He's where it all comes from
    And you know He'll forgive you for the wrong you've done

    Ooh, it's in the earth and the church and the words that we speak slow
    That's where country grows

    You bow your head to Jesus cause He's where it all comes from
    In the end He'll forgive us for the wrong we've done

    Ooh, it's in the earth and the church and the words that we speak slow
    That's where country grows
    That's where country grows

    Have you ever heard a song that changed your life
    Coming through the radio
    That's where country grows Writer/s: ASHTON SHEPHERD, BOBBY PINSON
