Tobacco Road

I was born in a bunk
Mummy died and 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 hanging on my back
Only you know how I loath
This place called Tobacco Road

But it's home
The only life I've ever known
Only you know how I love you
Tobacco Road

I'm gonna leave and get a job
With the help and grace from above
I'll make some money get rich I know
And bring it back to Tobacco Road

'Cos it's home
The only life I've ever known
Only you know how I love you
Tobacco Road

I'm gonna leave and get a job
With the help and grace from above
I'll make some money get rich I know
And bring it back to Tobacco Road

Bring dynamite and a crane
Blow it up start all over again
Build a town I'll be proud to show
Keep the name of Tobacco Road

'Cos it's home
The only life I've ever known
I despise you 'cos you're filthy
But I love you
'Cos you're home
