Back Where I Come From

Well in the town where I was raised,

the clock ticks and the cattle grazed

Time passed with amazing grace,

Back where I come from

You can lie on a river bank,

paint your name on a water tank

or Miscount all the beers you drank,

Back where I come from

[Chorus]

Back where I come from

Where I'll be when its said and done

I'm proud as anyone

That's where I come from

We learned in the Sunday school,

who made the sun shine through

I know who made the moon shine too,

Back where I come from

Blue eyes on a Saturday night,

tan legs in the broad daylight

TV's they were black and white,

Back where I come from

[Chorus]

Back where I come from

Where I'll be when its said and done

I'm proud as anyone

That's where I come from

Some say it's a backward place,

narrow minds on a narrow wage

But I make it a point to say,

that's where I come from

[Chorus]

That's where I come from

Where I'll be when its said and done

I'm proud as anyone

That's where I come from

Back where I come from

I'm an old Tennessean

Well Im proud as anyone

That's where I come from

That's where I come from

That's where I come from

That's where I come from
