Tobacco Road lyrics

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 'hang in' 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 it up, 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 you're filthy

But I love ya, 'cause it's home

Tobacco Road, Tobacco Road,

Tobacco Road, Tobacco Road.
