[Verse 1]
Here's a story 'bout love but it ain't like the book
It's got a guy and a girl and a heart that he took
And that girl had a dream and a spark in her eye
But that boy couldn't leave his hometown behind

[Verse 2]
They would sit there for hours and they'd talk about plans
'Bout putting down roots and rings on their hands
And she'd say "Baby Nashville ain't that far away
And if we leave tomorrow we'll be back here someday"

[Chorus]
But this town's got a piece of me
'Cause it'll always have you
And no matter where we run
Some things always gotta bring us back
To my roots, my roots, my roots, my roots
To my roots, my roots, my roots, my roots
To my roots

[Verse 3]
She bought two tickets to Nashville, thinking he would come too
He said "Babe there's some part of me that really wants to
But can we just love what we've got and stay here instead?"
He put a ring on her finger and she said

[Chorus]
This town's got a piece of me
'Cause it'll always have you
And no matter where I run
Some things always gotta bring me back
To my roots, my roots, my roots, my roots
To my roots, my roots, my roots, my roots

[Bridge]
But you shouldn't make promises at only eighteen
You're just a boy who loved a girl with some really big dreams
And she'll find it in her heart to forgive you someday
But right now it hurts like hell when I drive forth in May

[Chorus]
And that town's got a piece of me
And it'll always have you
But I've grown too far this time
To ever make it back
To my roots, my roots, my roots, my roots
To my roots, my roots, my roots, my roots
To my roots
