Lyrics: [Verse 1] I was cut from a field dat don't grow no gold Clay in my hand, snake in de hold Grandpere taught me how a man stand tall Not in de pulpit, but in de crawl We don't beg, we don't bend de knee We work de land till de land set free Busted back, bloody knuckle grip Honor don't shine, it drip [Pre-Chorus 1] Dey laugh at de boots with de mud so thick Dey laugh cause we ain't got de city slick Let 'em laugh while dey count de green We got somethin' dey never seen [Chorus 1] Dere's honor in dirt, where de bare feet bleed Honor in dirt, where de poor man feed Ain't no dollar make a man complete Dere's honor in dirt, down at my feet Honor in dirt! [Verse 2] I seen rich man buy a cross of chrome Pray on Sunday, then steal a home I seen preacher sell a holy cure While my people starve and stay poor We don't pray for a easy ride We pray de levee hold de tide We pray de pump don't quit at three Dat's de kind of man you make of me [Pre-Chorus 2] Dey build de church with a silver spire We build a house with balin' wire One gon' fall when de storm gon' hit One gon' stand in de pit [Chorus 2] Dere's honor in dirt, where de bare feet bleed Honor in dirt, where de poor man feed Ain't no dollar make a man complete Dere's honor in dirt, down at my feet Honor in dirt! [Verse 3] Twenty years diggin' ditch and grave Every inch took what de swamp gave Lost kinfolk to de flood and fight Buried 'em deep in de same red night Daddy's marker by de oak gone grey Momma's rose still by de clay Dey told me son, keep dat ground Cause dat's de only truth you found [Bridge] I DON'T NEED GOLD! I DON'T NEED PRAISE! I GOT DE SCARS FROM MY WORKIN' DAYS! YOU CAN KEEP YOUR SUIT! KEEP YOUR THRONE! I FOUND MY HEAVEN IN DIS STONE! [Verse 4] Now I'm back where de tractor rust Where de wind blow bone and dust City boy offer cash for my acre Say boy, sell it now, be a paper maker I told him nah, you don't understand You can't buy blood, you can't buy land You can't buy de ones sleepin' deep You can't buy de promise I keep [Pre-Chorus 3] Let de river rise, let de sky turn black I still stand where my kinfolk at No deed gon' change what I know De dirt done claimed my soul [Final Chorus] Dere's honor in dirt, where de bare feet bleed Honor in dirt, where de poor man feed Ain't no dollar make a man complete Dere's honor in dirt, down at my feet Dere's honor in dirt, where my kinfolk sleep Honor in dirt, dis promise I keep Honor in dirt!
