Don't you dare go runnin' down my little town where I grew up |
|
And I won't cuss your city lights |
|
If you ain't ever took a ride around |
|
And cruised right through the heart of my town |
|
Anything you say would be a lie |
|
We may live our lives a little slower |
|
But that don't mean |
|
I wouldn't be proud to show ya |
|
Where I come from |
|
There's an old ply boy out turning up dirt |
|
Where I come from |
|
There's a preacher man in a cowboy shirt |
|
Where I come from |
|
Well, a couple of boys fight in the parking lot |
|
No, nobody's gonna call the cops |
|
Where I come from |
|
See that door right there, man I swear |
|
It ain't never been locked |
|
And I can tell you that it never will |
|
That old man right there in the rocking chair |
|
At the courthouse square I'll tell you now |
|
He could buy your fancy car with hundred dollar bills |
|
Don't let those faded overalls fool ya |
|
He made his millions without one day of schoolin' |
|
Where I come from |
|
There's a pickup truck with the tailgate down |
|
Where I come from |
|
The pine trees are singing a song of the south |
|
Where I come from |
|
That little white church is gonna have a crowd |
|
Yeah, I'm pretty damn proud |
|
Of where I come from |
|
Where I come from |
|
There's a big ole' moon shining down at night |
|
Where I come from |
|
There's a man done wrong gonna make it right |
|
Where I come from |
|
There's an old ply boy out turning up dirt |
|
Where I come from |
|
There's a preacher man in a cowboy shirt |
|
Where I come from |
|
When a couple of boys |
|
Fight in the parking lot |
|
No, ain't nobody gonna call the cops |
|
Yeah, that river runs |
|
Across that old flint rock |
|
Where I come from |
|
Where I come from |
