Going Back to My Roots

Richie Havens

Zippin' up my boots Goin' back to my roots Yeah To the place of my birth Back down to earth. I've been standing in the rain Drenched and soaked with pain Tired of short time benefits And being exposed to the elements. I'm homeward bound Got my head turned around. Zippin' up my boots Goin' back to my roots Yeah To the place of my birth Back down to earth. Ain't talkin' 'bout no roots in the land Talkin' 'bout the roots in the man. I feel my spirit gettin' old It's time to recharge my soul I'm zippin' up my boots Goin' back to my roots Yeah To the place of my birth Back down to earth. Zippin' up my boots Goin' back to my roots. To the place of my birth Back down to earth.
