Few days before he turned 80He was sitting out back in a rockerHe said "What you been up to lately? "I told him chasing a dollarAnd in between sips of coffeeHe poured this wisdom outSaid "If you want my two cents on making a dollar countBuy dirtFind the one you can't live withoutGet a ring, let your knee hit the groundDo what you love but call it workAnd throw a little money in the plate at churchSend your prayers up and your roots down deepAdd a few limbs to your family treeAnd watch their pencils marks, and the grass in the yardAll grow up'Cause the truth about it is it all goes by real quickYou can't buy happinessBut you can buy dirt"Before you get caught on that ladderLet me tell you what it's all aboutFind you a few things that matterThat you can put a fence aroundAnd then he laid it outBuy dirtFind the one you can't live withoutGet a ring, let your knee hit the groundDo what you love but call it workAnd throw a little money in the plate at churchSend you prayers up and your roots down deepAnd add a few limbs to your family treeAnd watch their pencils marks, and the grass in the yardAll grow up'Cause the truth about it is it all goes by real quickYou can't buy happinessBut you can buy dirtYou can buy dirtAnd thank the good Lord for it'Cause He ain't makin' any more of itSo buy dirtFind the one you can't live withoutGet a ring, let your knee hit the groundDo what you love but call it workAnd throw a little money in the plate at churchSend your prayers up and your roots down deepAdd a few limbs to your family treeAnd watch their pencils marks, and the grass in the yardAll grow up'Cause the truth about it is it all goes by real quickYou can't buy happinessBut you can buy dirt
