Pulling Weeds Lyrics by Lauren Watkins

I’ve been tryin’ to drink more water than tequila
I’ve been waking up with the morning sun
I’ve been realizing maybe I don’t need you
I’ve quit working when I know the work is done

Kicking my old habits one by one

Grass stains and all, dirt on my hands
I’m cleaning up this mess the best I can
Good things can’t grow if I don’t make room
It’s ’bout damn time for me to bloom

So don’t take it personally
I’m just pulling weeds

I’m burying the bitterness and doubting
I’m digging up regret and jealousy
And the hard truth is there’s nothing easy ’bout it
There’s still a few with roots that run real deep

Grass stains and all, dirt on my hands
I’m cleaning up this mess the best I can
Good things can’t grow if I don’t make room
It’s ’bout damn time for me to bloom

So don’t take it personally
I’m just pulling weeds

I’m just getting started
I’m just letting go
I hope when people see my garden
They’ll wanna pull some of their own

Grass stains and all, dirt on my hands
I’m cleaning up this mess the best I can
Good things can’t grow if I don’t make room
It’s ’bout damn time for me to bloom

So don’t take it personally
If you see me roll up my sleeves
I’m just pulling weeds
I’m just pulling weeds
