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
|
