Tobacco Road Lyrics

I was born in a bunk. Mama died and my daddy got drunk. Left me here to die alone In the middle of Tobacco Road. Grew up in 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 known. Only you know how I loathe Tobacco Road. Gonna leave, 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 dynamite and a crane, blow it up, start all over again. Build a town, be proud to show. Give the name Tobacco Road. But it's home, the only life I ever known. I despise you 'cause you're filthy But I love ya, 'cause you're home. --------------------------------------------------------
