Tabacco Road

I was born in a dump My mama died and my daddy got drunk He left me here to die or grow In this place called tobacco road I grew up in a rusty shack All I own was hanging on my back Lord knows how I loathes This place called tobacco road I'm gonna leave and get me a job Will the lord help me from above Save my money and get rich or not In the middle of tobacco road Bring dynamite in a crate Blow it up and start all over again Build a town I'll be proud to show This place called tobacco road I was born in a dump My mama died and my daddy got drunk He left me here to die or grow In this place called tobacco road
