Tall Grass Songtext
von Digging Roots

I don′t wanna go back to the city
I don't wanna go
I don′t wanna go back to the city
I don't wanna go

Lay me down in the tall grass, let me be
Lay me down and let the moon have her way with me

Hey ya
Hey ya

I don't wanna go back to the concrete
I don′t wanna go
I don′t wanna go back to the concrete
I don't wanna go

Lay me down in the tall grass, let me be
Lay me down and let the wind have his way with me

Hey ya
Hey ya

Lay me down in the tall grass, let me be
Lay me down and let the wind have his way with mе


Hey ya
Hey ya

I don′t wanna go back to the hustlе
I don't wanna go
I don′t wanna go back to the hustle
I don't wanna go

Lay me down in the tall grass, let me be
Lay me down and let the rain wash over me
Lay me down in the tall grass, let me be
Lay me down and let the storm have his way


Hey ya, hey ya, hey ya
Hey ya
Hey ya, hey ya, hey ya
Hey ya, hey ya, hey ya
She said walk gently (Hey ya)
Walk gently (Hey ya)
Into the wide open spaces (Hey ya)
As far as you can see (Hey ya, hey ya, hey ya)
She said go to the places (Hey ya)
That you can breathe and I stood with the Old Ones (Hey ya)
Who dreamed this life in me
And listened for her voice (Hey ya, hey ya)
In the stillness of the trees (Hey ya)
Saying walk gently (Hey ya, hey ya)
And we fight and resist for the simple right to be (Hey ya, hey ya)
To stand with the land and dance in ceremony (Hey ya)
And this is what freedom means to me (Hey ya, hey ya)
This is what freedom means to me (Hey ya, hey ya, hey ya)
And how can you be free if I′m not free?
How can you be free if I'm not free? (Hey ya)
How can we be free? (Hey ya)

I don't wanna go back to the city (Ah, ah, ah)
I don′t wanna go (Don′t)
I don't wanna go back to the city (Ah, ah, ah)
I don′t wanna go, no (No)
I don't wanna go back to the city, no (Ah, ah, ah)
I don′t wanna go, no (Don't)
I don′t wanna go back to the city (Ah, ah, ah)
I don't wanna go, no (No)

(Aah, ah, ah, no)
This is what freedom means
(Aah, ah, ah, ah)
This is what freedom means
