Back Where I Come From

In the town where I was raised

The clock ticks and the cattle graze

And time passed with amazing grace

Back where I come from

You could lie on a river bank

Paint your name on a water tank

Miss count all the beers you drank

Back where I come from

Back where I come from

Where I'll be when it's said and done

I'm proud as any one

Thats where I come from

We learned in a Sunday school

Who made the sunshine 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 day light

TV's they were black and white

Back where I come from

Back where I come from

Where I'll be when its said and done

I'm proud as anyone

Thats where I come from

Some say it's a backwards place

Narrow minds on the narrow ways

But I make it a point to say

That's where I come from

That's where I come from

Where I'll be when it's said and done

I'm proud as anyone

That's where I come from

Back where I come from

I'm an old tennesseean

I'm 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
