|
I was born in a bunk |
|
Mama died and my daddy got drunk |
|
Left me here to die or grow |
|
In the middle of |
|
Tobacco Road |
|
I 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 itup, 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 |
|
I despise you 'cos your filthy |
|
But I love ya, 'cause it's home |
