I was born in a trunk.
Mama died and my daddy got drunk.
Left me here to die alone
In the middle of tobacco road.
Growin' up lord in a rusty shack,
And all I had was hangin' on my back.
Lord knows how 
I loatheThis place called 
Tobacco Road.
But it's home,
The only life, life, life 
I've ever known.
And I guess 
I can't help but
Loathe Tobacco.[Instrumental]
Gonna leave, and get a job
With the help and the grace from above.
I'll save my money, get rich and old,
And I think 
I'll bring it all back to 
Tobacco Road.
Bring dynamite and a big old crane,
And I'll blow it up, start all over again.
I'm gonna build me a town, that 
Ill be proud to show.
And I think 
I'll give it the name 
Tobacco Road.
But it's home,
The only life 
I've ever known.
I guess I can't help but love you'
Cause you're home
Tobacco Road
Tobacco Road
Whoah, Tobacco 
RoadBring dynamite and a big old crane,
I'll blow it up, tear it down and start all over again.
I guess I can't help but 
I love...I love you...
Yeah...Tobacco...![Instrumental and vocalizing]
I love you!
Oh I love you!
Oh I love you!
I love you!
I love you!
I love you![Vocalizing]
I love you 'cause you're home
I'm talkin' 'bout 
Tobacco Road, yeah
Tobacco Road, yeah!
