Tobacco Road Lyrics – Hailey and Johnny

Tobacco Road Text

---

I was born in a barn
Mama died and my daddy got drunk
Left me here to die of cold
In the middle of Tobacco road

Through a bin
Rusty shack
All I had was hangin' on my back
All of you know how much I loathe
This place called tobacco road

But it's all
The life I've ever known
Only you know how I loathe
Tobacco road

Gonna leave, get a job
With the help and the grace from above
Get some money, get rich and old
Bring it back to tobacco road

Bring dynamite and a crane
Blow it up
Start all over again
Build a town with a brighter show
Give the name tobacco road

Well this hole
The only life I've ever known
I despise you cos you're filthy
But I love you cos you're home
