Well in the town where I was raised
The clock ticks and the cattle graze
Time pa**ed with amazing grace
Back where I come from
You could lie on a riverbank
Or paint your name on a water tank
Or 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
Well 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 moonshine too
Back where I come from
Blue eyes on a Saturday night
Tan 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
Well I'm proud as anyone
That's where I come from
Some say it's a backward place
Narrow minds on the narrow way
But I make it a point to say
That's where I come from
That's where come from
Where I'll be when it's said and done
Well I'm proud as anyone
That's where I come from
Back where I come from
I'm an old Tennessean
([I'm proud]) I'm proud as anyone
That's where I come from
([That's where I come from])
([That's where I come from])
([That's where I come from])
