In the town where I was raised

the clock ticks and the cattle graze

time passed with Amazing Grace

Back where I come from

now you can lie on a riverbank

paint your name on a watertank

or miss count all teh beers you drank

back where I come from



Chorus

Back where I come from

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

I'm proud as anyone

back where I come from



We learned in Sunday school

just who made the sun shine through

I know who made the moonshine too

back where I come from

Blue eyes on a Saturday night

tan legs in the bright day light

tv's they were black and white

back where I come from



Bridge

Some say it's a backwards place

Narrow minds on a narrow way

I make it a point to say

That that's where I come from



Chrous (2)

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 and ole Tennessee 'un

I'm proud as anyone

that's where I come from



that's where I come from...........

that's where I come from.......
