|
I was born in a dump |
|
Mama died and daddy got drunk |
|
Left me here to die or grow |
|
In a middle of Tobacco Road |
|
Grew up in a rusty shack |
|
All I had was 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 know |
|
Only you know how I loathe |
|
Tobacco Road |
|
Gonna leave get a job |
|
With the help and the graze from above |
|
Save same money get rich I know |
|
Bring it back to Tobacco Road |
|
Bring dynamite and a crane |
|
Blow it up start all over again |
|
Build to a town be proud to show |
|
Give the name Tobacco Road |
