    ‘Dirt Turns to Gold’ Lyrics:
    Daddy said, "They ain't makin' no more of it"
    I said, "That's fine with me, 'cause I'm tired of working on it
    Soon as I can, I'm outta here
    I don't love it like you do"
    "Son, I know just how you feel
    I used to feel the same way too"
    'Til I learned dirt turns to gold
    You gotta be patient, son, it happens slow
    It'll take some blood, sweat, and tears
    More than a few hardworking years
    I know it's hard to see that far down the road
    Oh, but dirt turns to gold
    Well, I saved enough to move into that city
    Where the lights shine bright at night, and the girls are pretty
    Oh, but some nights, I can't sleep a wink
    For the sirens and the horns
    And I miss crickets and whippoorwills
    And the peaceful sounds of home
    Now I know dirt turns to gold
    I washed it off, but it stayed down in my soul
    And there's this girl I met, says she'd like to see
    The place that means so much to me
    She wants to feel that feeling that I know
    Back where dirt turns to gold
    So I took her back home for a long weekend
    She'd never seen nothing like County Road Ten
    I rolled all those windows down
    Pointed out my old stomping grounds
    After supper at mom and dad's
    Swinging in the swing, hand in hand
    Watching the sun sinking out of sight
    She said, "I could get used to this life"
    Out where dirt turns to gold
    On a piece of heaven down some country road
    There's space out here for us to breathe
    To build a home and plant some seeds
    Sit on the porch and watch our children grow
    That's where dirt turns to gold
    Yeah, dirt turns to gold

    This song is helping a Texas farm kid heal from being electrocuted while driving a tractor. He lost an arm and some toes, but is in ICU and his AMAZING nurse askes the family what his favorite music is. When he hears that song he tries to "play" his guitar and taps his feet to the beat. Please pray for him.

    Zach, your Daddy is so right your song (Dirt Turns to Gold) is Beautiful and so True. Sometimes "Life" takes us somewhere else to grow and do what we were meant to do, what we Love and do what we are meant to do. We have "Roots" and we have "Wings", Momma and Daddy obviously gave you good roots and now you are using those "wings" to do what you Love and were Meant to do and it shows Mr Zach Top in your Smile, your voice, your Music, your a Very Talented Musician and I am so glad you are sharing it with us. I Love your Old Country Soul🥰 Thank You and keep that Country Music Coming!!! Love to you and your Crew❤❤ TJW

      Dig a little deeper. This guy is in a class with the likes of Whitley, Singletary, and Kevin Denney. Luke Combs is good in his own right but Mr. Top here has something special vocally with some awesome musicianship. Man I hope Country Music has circled back enough to appreciate what he’s resurrecting.
