Colvin , Earle - Tobacco Road lyrics

[Colvin , Earle - Tobacco Road lyrics]

I was born in a dump
Mama died and my daddy got drunk
Left me here to die alone
In the middle of Tobacco Road

Grew up in a rusty shack
Our head was hanging on our back
Only you’d know how low
This place called Tobacco Road

But it’s home only life I’d ever known
Only you’d know tobacco Road

Gonna leave, get a job
With help and grace from above
Raise some money, get rich enough
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 to Tobacco Road

But it’s home only life I’d ever known
Only you’d know tobacco Road
But it’s home only life I’d ever known
Only you know I know tobacco Road
