[00:11.19]I was born in a bunk
[00:14.70]Mama died and my daddy got drunk
[00:18.27]Left me here to die or grow
[00:22.14]In the middle of Tobacco Road
[00:28.41]I grew up in a dusty shack
[00:31.92]And all I had was a'hangin' on my back
[00:35.46]Only you know how I loathe
[00:38.91]This place called Tobacco Road
[00:44.94]But it's home
[00:47.76]The only life I've ever known
[00:52.59]Only you know how I loathe
[00:59.28]Tobacco Road
[01:22.98]I'm gonna leave and get a job
[01:26.31]With the help and the grace from above
[01:29.73]Save some money, get rich I know
[01:33.48]Bring it back to Tobacco Road
[01:39.93]Bring dynamite and a crane
[01:44.07]Blow itup, start all over again
[01:48.69]Build a town, be proud to show
[01:50.55]Give the name Tobacco Road
[01:53.01]Cause it's home
[01:59.40]The only life I've ever known
[02:05.97]I despise you 'cos your filthy
[02:09.12]But I love ya, 'cause it's home

I was born in a bunk
Mama died and my daddy got drunk
Left me here to die or grow
In the middle of Tobacco Road
I grew up in a dusty shack
And all I had was a'hangin' on my back
Only you know how I loathe
This place called Tobacco Road
But it's home
The only life I've ever known
Only you know how I loathe
Tobacco Road
I'm gonna leave and get a job
With the help and the grace from above
Save some money, get rich I know
Bring it back to Tobacco Road
Bring dynamite and a crane
Blow itup, 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 'cos your filthy
But I love ya, 'cause it's home
