Make the Dirt Stick

Lyrics

There's nothing wrong with staying inside
 There's nothing wrong staying home tonight
 All week long was a world of restless
 Whatever it takes for a little peace and quiet
 I got a pump, be right out back now
 I got a well up on the hill
 All summer long was rain and water
 Sometime surrender to God's will
 Whatever it takes, you best now surrender
 Whatever you know, you gotta tell them quick
 Scratching the wall with some old barbed wire
 Whatever it takes to make the dirt stick
 I hear them coming with the crane and hammer
 I hear them digging these holes in the ground
 I feel like there's something bound to take me over
 Son, do what you can in a mean old town
 Whatever it takes, you best now surrender
 Whatever you know, you gotta tell them quick
 Scratching the wall with some old barbed wire
 Whatever it takes to make the dirt stick
 I said whatever it takes, you best now surrender
 Whatever you know, you gotta tell them quick
 Scratching the wall with some old barbed wire
 Whatever it takes to make the dirt stick
