    Lyrics
    Zippin' up my boots
    Goin' back to my roots
    Yeah
    To the place of my birth
    Back down to earth.
    I've been standing in the rain
    Drenched and soaked with pain
    Tired of short time benefits
    And being exposed to the elements.
    I'm homeward bound
    Got my head turned around.
    Zippin' up my boots
    Goin' back to my roots
    Yeah
    To the place of my birth
    Back down to earth.
    Ain't talkin' 'bout no roots in the land
    Talkin' 'bout the roots in the man.
    I feel my spirit gettin' old
    It's time to recharge my soul
    I'm zippin' up my boots
    Goin' back to my roots
    Yeah
    To the place of my birth
    Back down to earth.
    Zippin' up my boots
    Goin' back to my roots.
    To the place of my birth
    Back down to earth.

    V2002 - I was working a hot dog/burger stand. During recruitment we were told we would be instantly fired if we left to watch a band we liked during our shift. I knew I wanted to see Groove Armada, but they were on during my shift. "Screw it" I thought, and asked to go to the bathroom sometime shortly after their set started. I RAN to the stage they were playing, saw a couple songs (including Hands of Time, I think), but then this song started. I was completely on my own and totally sober, but 19 years later, it remains one of the greatest moments of live music I have ever witnessed (and working in music for the past 10 years, I've travelled all over the world with bands and DJs). Being half Nigerian, he took me directly back to the village I was born, in the jungle! ❤️
    I managed to get back to the hot dog stand, and nobody said a word.

    Richie Havens gave us his all in every performance! Dude was connected to something deep and spiritual - and his voice is so soulful and honest......we need more people like him in 2019

      When you consider the fact that he played the first Woodstock festival back in "the day" [as it's quaintly refer-ed (? don't mind if I do) to], the fact that he's still around and still charged up, tells you a lot about the man - Legend!

      @@bicino Oh, that is sad to hear. I saw him with Groove Armada at the Virgin festival (some-place north of Birmingham UK) in about 2006 ish. I remember thinking then, that he was remarkably well preserved for a musician who played at Woodstock. I was literally 7 or 8 years old when that festival hit the 1960's.
      Thanks for taking the time to inform me of his passing. x

    Awesome performance ....... makes my night .... funky perfection! My dad was a jazz drummer for 60 years and I have him to thank for my appreciation of this type of music . He's 93 now and still an awesome drumming talent.

      Thats cool as f mate. My dad was a bass teacher, my uncle still teaches at the local school as a drum/ sax/ trumpet teacher,, still does private lessons, in the "shed" yep, the tin shed my grandfather used as a tractor shed, my uncle, has spent over $100 k getting this magic space to where it is. Masterpiece, let alone all the brilliant equipment in there
      .Gotta love the family roots..❤ edit: his son, is a drum teacher now, at the age of 32, does drum line , had played some serious gigs.
