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
