robbie fulks - that's where i'm from lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
back in the driveway
the end of the workday
and how fast that world disappears
a fresh lawn, a pine tree
a neighbor just like me
that’s worked all his life to get here

[refrain 1]
a man climbs as high as he can
but his heart belongs where it began

[verse 2]
i can see in my mind’s eye
a shack on a hillside
and a mean billy-goat on a chain
dad doin’ battle
with dirt hard as gravel
and summers the crops never came

[refrain 2]
we’d shoot down a pheasant in flight
and sing songs about jesus all night

[chorus]
and that’s where i’m from
where time p-sses slower
that’s where i’m from
where it’s “yes, ma’am” and “no, sir”
can’t tell i’m country
just you look closer
it’s deep in my blood

[post-chorus 1]
two cars, a picket fence
that’s where i’ve come
dirt roads and double-wides
that’s where i’m from

[verse 3]
night school on a fast track
and no cause to look back
that place put a scar on my soul
and i swore my young ones
would never know hunger
and the good life is all they can know

[refrain 3]
well, i’ve watched them grow, now i see
one thing separates them from me

[chorus]
and that’s where i’m from
where time p-sses slower
that’s where i’m from
where it’s “yes, ma’am” and “no, sir”
can’t tell i’m country
just you look closer
it’s deep in my blood

[post-chorus 2]
a white collar, a necktie
that’s where i’ve come
half-naked in the moonshine
that’s where i’m from

[refrain 4]
if you’ve ever heard hank williams sing
well, you know the whole blessed thing

[chorus]
’cause that’s where i’m from
where time p-sses slower
that’s where i’m from
where it’s “yes, ma’am” and “no, sir”
can’t tell i’m country
just you look closer
it’s deep in my blood

[post-chorus 3]
a long way down a hard road
that’s where i’ve come
someplace i can’t go home to
that’s where i’m from
