Lyrics:

Eric Burdon And War
tobacco Road Tobacco Road [medley]
(John D. Loudermilk)


i Was Born In A Bunk
mother Died And My Daddy Got Drunk
left Me Here To Die Or Grow
in The Middle Of Tobacco Road

grew Up In A Dusty Shack
and All I Had Was A'hangin' On My Back
only You Know How I Loathe
this Place Called Tobacco Road

but It's Home
the Only Life I've Ever Known
only You Know How I Loathe
tobacco Road

i'm Gonna Leave And Get A Job
with The Help And The Grace From Above
save Some Money, Get Rich I Know
bring It Back To Tobacco Road

bring Dynamite And A Crane
blow You Up, Start All Over Again
build A Town Be Proud To Show
give The Name Tobacco Road

cause It's Home
the Only Life I've Ever Known
oh I Despise And Disapprove You
but I Love Ya, 'cause It's Home
