Lyrics

Oh put that black Iowa dirt on a biscuit Oh put that black Iowa dirt in my teeth Oh put that black Iowa dirt in a big old bucket And I'll carry it around with me Took a walk in the corn row this morning Last night it rained about an inch or two It was getting hard to walk So I looked down at my feet and I got black Iowa dirt on my shoes I got that dirt underneath my fingernails Got that dirt running through my veins Oh that black Iowa dirt turns my blood to mud everytime it rains Oh everytime it rains In the eastfield I got a little rice patch In the northfield I got my corn And up on high ground where I'll be found In the house where I was born I seen black Iowa dirt help a family Yes by on a wing and a prayer I've seen black Iowa dirt explode out the ground And go a thousand feet in the hair I got that dirt underneath my fingernails Got that dirt running through my veins Oh that black Iowa dirt turns my blood to mud everytime it rains Oh everytime it rains I got a big old patch of taters I got a big old patch of beans I got black Iowa dirt on my new white shirt I got black Iowa dirt on my jeans Well gonna put that black Iowa dirt on a biscuit I'll put that black Iowa dirt in my teeth And when they go to fill my grave on the hill They'll put black Iowa dirt over me Oh Lord Black Iowa dirt over me I got that dirt underneath my fingernails Got that dirt running through my veins Oh that black Iowa dirt turns my blood to mud everytime it rains Oh Lord, everytime it rains
