TOBACCO ROAD
The Nashville Teens
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.
Grow 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 ever known.
Only you know how I loathe Tobacco Road.
Interlude
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 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
and it's lost...
But I lost it's your home
