Tobacco Road (Re-Recorded) - 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

Growin' up, lord, in a rusty shack

And all I had was hangin' on my back

Lord knows how I loathe

This place called Tobacco Road

But it’s home

The only life, life, life I’ve ever known

And I guess I can’t help but

Loathe Tobacco

Gonna leave and get a job

With the help and the grace from above

I’ll save my money, get rich and old

And I think I’ll bring it all back to Tobacco Road

Bring dynamite and a big old crane

And I’ll blow it up, start all over again

I’m gonna build me a town, that I’ll be proud to show

And I think I’ll give it the name Tobacco Road

But it’s home

The only life I’ve ever known

I guess I can’t help but love you

'Cause you’re home

Tobacco Road

Tobacco Road

Woah, Tobacco Road

Bring dynamite and a big old crane

I’ll blow it up, tear it down and start all over again

I guess I can’t help but I love

I love you, yeah, Tobacco

I love you

Oh I love you, oh I love you

I love you, I love you, I love you

I love you 'cause you’re home

I’m talkin' 'bout Tobacco Road, yeah

Tobacco Road, yeah
