Eric Burdon - Tobacco Road

Tobacco Road I was born In a trunk My Mumma died, Yeah, my Daddy got drunk Left me here To die alone in the middle of Tobacco Road I grew up in, yeah Rusty shack All I owned was a hanging on my back Lord knows how much I loathed This place called Tobacco Road Coz its home The only life I ever know, yeh And the Lord knows I loathed Tobacco Road Yeh, Yeh, Yeh... I'm gonna leave now Get me a job With the help and the grace of God I'm gonna save my money Get very rich I know Bring it back to Tobacco Road Bring that dynamite, yeh Big old crane Blow it up, tear it down Start all over again Build me a town Be very proud to show Keep the name of Tobacco Road Coz its home The only life I ever know, yeh And the Lord knows I loathed Tobacco Road Yeh, Yeh, Yeh. (Break) I'm gonna leave now And get me a job, yeh With the help and the grace of God I'm gonna save my money Get very rich I know Bring it back to Tobacco Road Bring that dynamite, yeh big old crane Blow it up, tear it down Start all over again Build me a town Be very proud to show keep the name of Tobacco Road Coz its home The only life I ever know, yeh And the Lord knows I loathed Tobacco Road.
