[Verse 1] Hes a junior Star of his hometown team Got the grades, got the girl, got it all so it seems Those big game lights in his eyes Never felt so alive, so wild, so free Now the fall has come and gone Hes got his country colours on Sitting there in the drive with his dad And he says... [Chorus] When the stars line on up And you finally strike gold When the pressures way too much But the diamond starts to show When your prayers get answered Gods plan unfolds Now dont you forget to... Make mistakes, lose your way Get some dirt on your boots Call your mom, write your friends Ones that were there for you Remember all of them people When your dreams come true Now dont you forget your roots [Verse 2] She has seen him Giving his heart to the game Every night paid the price now hes finally got a break Calls home saying Mom weve been dreaming bout this day. Tears streaming down his face Through the phone and his momma she says... [Chorus] When the stars line on up And you finally strike gold When the pressures way too much But the diamond starts to show When your prayers get answered Gods plan unfolds Now dont you forget to... Make mistakes, lose your way Get some dirt on your boots Call your mom, write your friends Ones that were there for you Remember all of them people When your dreams come true Now dont you forget your roots [Bridge] Oh, now dont you forget your roots Oh [Chorus] When the stars line on up And you finally strike gold When the pressures way too much But the diamond starts to show When your prayers get answered Gods plan unfolds Now dont you forget to... Make mistakes, lose your way Get some dirt on your boots Call your mom, write your friends Ones that were there for you Remember all of them people When your dreams come true Now dont you forget your roots Now dont you forget your roots
