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 rusty shack,
all I had was hangin' on my back.
Only Lord knows how I loathe
this place called Tobacco Road.

But it's home, the only life I ever know
But the Lord knows how I loathe Tobacco Road.
Gonna leave, get a job
with the help and the grace of God.
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 ever known.
Only you know how I loathe Tobacco Road.
