Rare Earth Tobacco Road
I was born in a dump
My mama died, my daddy got drunk
He left me here to die or grow
In the middle of Tobacco Road
I grew up in a rusty shack
All I owned was a'hangin' on my back
The Lord knows how I love
This place called Tobacco Road
But it's home, it's really my home
The only life I've ever known
For the Lord, the Lord knows I love
Tobacco Road
I'm gonna leave and get a job
With the help and the grace of God
I'll save my money, get rich I know
Bring it back to Tobacco Road
I gonna get me some dynamite
Gonna bring me a crane
Got to blow you up, got to tear you down
And start all over again
But I'll build a town, I'll be proud to show
Keep the name of Tobacco Road
'Cause it's home
The only life I've ever known
I despise because you're filthy
But I love you, 'cause you're my home
Tobacco Road
Tobacco Road
You're dirty and filthy
Tobacco Road
Gonna get me some dynamite
Gonna bring me a crane
Got to blow you up, got to tear you down
And start all over again
Tobacco Road
Tobacco Road
I despise, I despise you 'cause you're filthy
But I love you, because you're my home
Tobacco Road, Road
Talkin' 'bout a dirty, low down, filthy place
Tobacco Road, yeah
You're so dirty and filthy
