I was born in a bunk
Mama 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
All I had was a-hanging on my back
And only you know how I loathe
The place called Tobacco Road.
But it's home
The only life I've ever know
Only you know how I loathe
Oohh, Tobacco Road.
I'm gonna leave and get a job
And with some help and grace from above
Save some money, an' get rich enough
And bring it back to Tobacco Road.

Left me here to die or grow
In the middle of Tobacco Road.
Grew up in a dusty shack
All I had was a-hanging on my back
And only you know how I loathe
The place called Tobacco Road.
But it's home
The only life I've ever know
Only you know how I loathe
Oohh, Tobacco Road.

And with some help and grace from above

And bring it back to Tobacco Road.
Mama 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
All I had was a-hanging on my back
And only you know how I loathe
The place called Tobacco Road.
But it's home
The only life I've ever know
Only you know how I loathe
Oohh, Tobacco Road.
I'm gonna leave and get a job
And with some help and grace from above
Save some money, an' get rich enough
And bring it back to Tobacco Road.
