Digging Roots - Cut My Hair Lyrics

Hm, mm-mm

Hm, mm, mm, mm
Huh huh-uh
Huh, uh-uh-uh

When they cut my hair
I said they're tryna cut down my roots
Oh, when they cut my hair
I said they're tryna cut down my roots
Won't even let me speak my words
Ah, they're trying to take that too

Oh, when they send me away now
Oh, they sent me like a butchered up calf
Oh, I say when they sent me away
I said they sent me like a butchered up cow
Oh, I said a butchered up cow
Well, they be eatin' me alive
From the inside-out

Huh huh-uh
Yeah (ooh-ooh)
Huh, uh-uh-uh
Huh huh-uh (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Huh, uh-uh-uh

Well, I'm gonna hit that road now
Oh, and flag, flag me down a ride
I'm gonna hit that road and flag me down, and flag me down a ride
Flag me down a ride
Oh, and if no one's gonna pick me up, now
Gonna take these walkin' blues and fly
I wanna fly

(Huh huh-uh)
(Huh, uh-uh-uh)
(Huh huh-uh)
(Huh, uh-uh-uh)

(Oh, oh, ooh)
(Na-na, na-na, na-na, na-na)

(Hey-hey-hey-hey-hey-hey-hey)
(Hey-hey-hey-hey-hey-hey-hey)
(Oh-ooh)

When they cut my hair
I said they tryna cut down my roots, roots, my roots
Oh when they, when they cut my hair, now
I said they're trying
To cut my roots now
Well, you can cut down a tree
But there's still Mishkiki, there's still Mishikiki
There's still medicine at the roots

Huh huh-uh
Huh, uh-uh-uh
Huh huh-uh
Huh, uh-uh-uh
