Tobacco Road Lyrics
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 in a filthy 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 known
And I can't help but loathe
Tobacco
Gonna leave, and get a job
With the help and the grace from above
Save some money, get rich and old
Bring it back to Tobacco Road
Bring that dynamite and a crane
Blow it up, start all over again
Build a town, be proud to show
Gives the name Tobacco Road
But it's home
The only life I've ever known
But I love you
'Cause you're home
Mama died and my daddy got drunk
Left me here to die alone
In the middle of tobacco road
All I had was hangin' on my back
Only you know how I loathe
This place called Tobacco Road
The only life I've ever known
And I can't help but loathe
Tobacco
With the help and the grace from above
Save some money, get rich and old
Bring it back to Tobacco Road
Blow it up, start all over again
Build a town, be proud to show
Gives the name Tobacco Road
The only life I've ever known
But I love you
'Cause you're home
