Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Kenny Chesney
Thank ya'll very much!
Okay, Dallas, I wanna play ya'll a song now...
That...uh...I gotta say It's one of my favorite songs I've ever recorded
For a lot of reasons...
But it paints the perfect picture of what it's like growing up in the country
And in East Tennessee, it was no different for me...
It's called "Back Where I Come From"
I hope ya'll enjoy this...
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
Miscount 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 anyone
That's where I come from...
We learned in a 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
Tanned legs in the broad daylight
TV's...They were black and white
Back where I come from...
Back 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...
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...
That's where I come from
I'm an old Tennesseean
I'm proud as anyone
That's where I come from...
Back where I come from...
Back where I come from...
Back where I come from...
We sure do love ya'll...
Thank you!
Oh yeah!
