Artist/Band: Bobby Bare
Lyrics for Song: Where'd I Come From
Lyrics for Album: Singin' in the Kitchen (w. Family) [RCA Victor] [1974]



(Jerry Foster - Bill Rice)

Jeannie Bare & Bobby Bare, Jr.



Mama where'd I come from

Did they give me to you free

Did you buy me in a boystore

Mama, where'd you find me?



Well Bobby

I found you in a smile

And the gentleness

Hidden in your daddy's eyes.



Freddie said a bird came

And left me in a tree

Mama, where'd I come from

That don't sound right to me?



Well, I'll tell you darling, God in all his sweetness

Smiled on us yes he did

Then an angel and brought you on

The wings of love.



Did a doctor bring me

Like John said he did

And if a doctor brought me

Where'd they get kids?



Well sweetheart can you keep a secret

Hmmm well, just between a mother and her son

I'll tell ye you were born of love

And that's where you came from.



Well Bobby, now do you know

Where you came from, yes where, love...


Where'd I Come From

Bobby Bare's 'Where'd I Come From' stands as a poignant centerpiece on his 1974 album 'Singin' in the Kitchen (w. Family) [RCA Victor] [1974]'. Recorded in the classic country-pop style that defined his career, the track blends acoustic storytelling with a melodic sensibility characteristic of the era. Bare's delivery captures a reflective mood, exploring themes of origin and identity through a lens of gentle nostalgia. The recording exemplifies his ability to balance commercial appeal with sincere emotional expression, contributing to a body of work that remains influential in the country music canon. As part of his discography from the mid-1970s, the song reflects the polished yet authentic sound that made him a staple on radio charts during that period.
