So the hazel mushrooms have rare, precious qualities, comparable to the 东北 character. That would make sense in context. But it really does sound to me like he is singing 俺们那嘎身上有正根 even though the background characters don't say that. Is that possible, and what would it mean?

Again, it is a "隱寓" -  俺们那嘎身上有"正統/真正的雷锋精神". "根" can be interpreted as "基因", 雷锋基因 = 雷锋精神.

正根, "true roots", that also seems like it could mean the sort of righteous character that is being extolled. I'm still curious why someone would say 要是不处理一下，能发行吗?

That's because they wanted to ensure they had the best words for both the meaning and rhyming, a normal process in lyric writing.

<p>Following on from my question about the song <a href="https://chinese.stackexchange.com/questions/58697/%E7%BF%A0%E8%8A%B1-%E4%B8%8A%E9%85%B8%E8%8F%9C-what-does-it-mean-here">东北人都是或雷锋</a>, I noticed one of the lines seemed to stand out a little.</p>
<p>In the song, 老张 has invited the 东北人 who rescued him from a vehicle accident to dinner. The drink flows freely, and his guest holds forth about the character of the local people:</p>
<pre><code>俺们那嘎都是东北人,    Around here we're Northeasterners
俺们那嘎特产高丽参,    Around here our specialty is Ginseng
俺们那嘎猪肉炖粉条,    Around here our dish is braised pork
俺们那嘎都是活雷锋.    Around here we're all living Lei Feng's.
俺们那嘎没有这种人,    Around here we don't have people like that
撞了车哪能不救人,      If you're in an accident how can you not help
俺们那嘎山上有真蘑,    Around here there are Hazel mushrooms in the mountains
这个人他不是东北人.    That guy is not a Northeasterner.
</code></pre>
<p>The second to last line above seems out of place. He's talking about how 东北人 are the sort of people who will help someone in trouble, and contrasting it with the caddish behaviour of the driver who caused the accident and ran off: clearly not a 东北人. So why is there this odd line about 榛蘑 (hazel mushrooms)? Is it just there as a filler?</p>
<p>Listening to the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ya8CTv2dwS4" rel="nofollow noreferrer">song</a> it doesn't sound like that is actually what he is saying and I'm not the only one to wonder about that line.

Sometimes the `根` or mushroom can also represent the penis.  ← 不'处理'一下...

"榛蘑是中国东北特有的山珍之一，和肉蘑一样，也是极少数**不能人工培育**的食用菌之一。

* "不能人工培育" means "it is not possible to reproduce manually", which hints it is "a true, rare nature product".

The interpretation of the lyric, therefore, is - "俺们那嘎山上有(如假包換的)**真雷锋**/(榛蘑)".
