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' from my back

Only you know how Iove

This place called Tobacco road



(chorus)

But it's home

The only life I've ever known

Only you know how I love

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



(chorus)



Let's get it on

Tobacco road



Bring that dynamite and a crane

Blow it up, start all over again

Build a town be proud to show

Give the name Tobacco road
