Tobacco Road |
I was born in a bunk |
Mother died and my daddy got drunk |
Left me here to die or grow |
In the middle of Tobacco Road |
Grew up in a dusty shack |
And all I had was a’hangin' on my back |
Only you know how I loathe |
This place called Tobacco Road |
But it’s home |
The only life I’ve ever known |
Only you know how I loathe |
Tobacco Road |
I’m gonna leave and get a job |
With the help and the grace from above |
Save some money, get rich I know |
Bring it back to Tobacco Road |
Bring Dynamite and a crane |
Blow you up, start all over again |
Build a town be proud to show |
Give the name Tobacco Road |
Cause it’s home |
The only life I’ve ever known |
Oh I despise and disapprove you |
But I love ya, 'cause it’s home |
