[Verse 1]
G G
Sometimes my nails match my lips and my jeans hug my hips
C G Bb
but I don't feel like doing all that right now.
G G
He's on his way over and my hair's in a ponytail holder
C D C
and my true colors are coming out.
[Chorus]
G*
You better love me when my roots are showing
G C G Bb
Or I'll pack up my boots and be going bye-bye-bye-bye-bye.
G G
If it's me that he's impressed with anything I might be dressed in
G* Bb C G
ought to be just fine.
D
If he's the one for me, I'll know it,
Db C* G Bb
you better love me when my roots are showing.
[Verse 2]
G G
If overalls turn him off, if he don't like the way I talk,
C G Bb
well, that's alright with me.
G G
I am a product of my momma, daddy, and the place I love.
C D C
What he gets is what he sees.
[Chorus]
G*
You better love me when my roots are showing
G C G Bb
Or I'll pack up my boots and be going bye-bye-bye-bye-bye.
G G
If it's me that he's impressed with anything I might be dressed in
G* Bb C G
ought to be just fine.
D
If he's the one for me, I'll know it,
Db C*
you better love me.
N.C.
You better love me when my roots are showing.
