Tobacco Road - Status Quo

I was born in a bunk

Mother died and my daddy got drunk

Left me here to die or grow

In the middle of Tobacco Road

Grew up in a dusty shack

And all I had was a’hangin' on my back

Only you know how I loathe

This place called Tobacco Road

But it’s home

The only life I’ve ever known

Only you know how I loathe

Tobacco Road

I’m gonna leave and get a job

With the help and the grace from above

Save some money, get rich I know

Bring it back to Tobacco Road

Bring Dynamite and a crane

Blow you up, start all over again

Build a town be proud to show

Give the name Tobacco Road

Cause it’s home

The only life I’ve ever known

Oh I despise and disapprove you

But I love ya, 'cause it’s home
