[Verse 1]
Jaunty chinky rock
Graveyard dirt
Don't track that dirt
In my house
You dont know
What you bringing in here
Mud on your boots
And a chill in the air
[Pre-Chorus]
Grandma saw it first
At the screen door crack
Dust in the hallway
A shadow on your back
[Chorus]
Don't track that dirt in my house
Don't track that dirt in my house
You dont know what you bringing in here
Was grandma's fear (grandma's fear)
Don't track that dirt in my house
Don't track that dirt in my house
Wipe your feet at the door
Leave that graveyard there
[Verse 2]
I seen it on your cuffs
That cold brown stain
Like you came up
From under rain
You smiled too wide
But I knew that look
Same old warning
In grandma's book
[Pre-Chorus]
Salt by the steps
And a light by the sink
She said "watch that doorway"
Before you blink
[Chorus]
Don't track that dirt in my house
Don't track that dirt in my house
You dont know what you bringing in here
Was grandma's fear (grandma's fear)
Don't track that dirt in my house
Don't track that dirt in my house
Wipe your feet at the door
Leave that graveyard there
[Bridge]
I hear her voice
In the floorboard creak
"Honey, keep your house clean
Keep your heart beat"
So take your boots
Back out to the yard
Some things come in
And they stay too hard
[Final Chorus]
Don't track that dirt in my house
Don't track that dirt in my house
You dont know what you bringing in here
Was grandma's fear (grandma's fear)
Don't track that dirt in my house
Don't track that dirt in my house
Wipe your feet at the door
Leave that graveyard there
