Tobacco Road versuri

Versuri The Browns – Tobacco Road lyrics

I was born in a dump
Mama died and daddy got drunk
Left me here to die or grow in the middle of tobacco road
Grew up in a filthy shack, all I owned was a hangin’ on my back
Only Lord knows how I loathe this place called Tobacco Road

But it’s home
The only life I’ve ever known
Yet I can’t help but loathe
Tobacco Road

Gonna leave and get a job with the help
And the grace of God
Save my money, get rich I know
Bring it back to Tobacco Road
Bring dynamite and a crane
Blow it up and start over again
Build a town, be proud to show
Keep the name ‘Tobacco Road’

Cause it’s home
The only life I’ve ever known
I despise you cause you’re filthy
But I love you cause you’re home
