Lyrics
I was born - in a bunk Mama died an' my daddy got drunk Left me here to - die or grow In the middle of "Tobacco Road" Grew up in - a rusty shack All I had was a-hangin' on my back Only you know - how I loathe This place called Tobacco Road 'Cause it's home - the only life I've ever known Only you know how I loathe Tobacco Road Break 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" 'Cause it's home - the only life I've ever known I despise you 'cause yer filthy But I love you - 'cause yer home
