Alan Jackson - Where I Come From
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
I WAS ROLLING WHEELS AND SHIFTING GEARS
'ROUND THAT JERSEY TURNPIKE.

WHEN BARNEY STOPPED ME WITH HIS GUN
TEN MINUTES AFTER MIDNIGHT.
SAID SIR YOU BROKE THE LIMIT

IN THAT RUSTY OL' TRUCK.
D STOP
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT ACCENT SON,
JUST WHERE DID YOU COME FROM?

Chours

I SAID WHERE I COME FROM,
ITS CORNBREAD AND CHICKEN.
WHERE I COME FROM,

A LOT OF FRONT PORCH SITTING.
WHERE I COME FROM,
TRYING TO MAKE A LIVING,

AND WORKING HARD TO GET TO HEAVEN.
WHERE I COME FROM.

VERSE
I WAS SOUTH OF DETROIT CITY.
PULLED INTO THIS COUNTRY KITCHEN
TO TRY THEIR BRAND OF BARBQUE,
SIGN SAYES FINGER LICKING.
WELL I PAID THE TAB AND THE LADY ASKED ME,
HOW'D I LIKE MY BISCUIT?
STOP
I'LLBE HONEST WITH YOU MA'ME
IT AN'T LIKE MOMA'S FIXED IT.

TO CHOURS
MUSIC

VERSE 3
I WUZ CHASING SUN ON 101
SOMEWHERE 'ROUND VENTURA.
I HAD LOST A UNIVERSAL JOINT AND I HAD TO USE MY FINGER.
THIS TALL LADY STOPPED AND ASKED IF I HAD PLANS FOR DINNER.
STOP
I SAID NO THANKS MA'ME, BACK HOME WE LIKE GIRLS THAT SING SAPRANO.

CHOURS

VERSE 3
I WAS HEADING HOME ON 65
SOME WHERE AROUND KENTUCKY.
THE CB RANG FROM A BOBTAIL RIG
THAT'S A ROLLING ON LIKE THUNDER.
WELL I ANSWERED HIM AND HE ASKED ME
AREN'T YOU FROM OUT IN TULSA?
NO, BUT YOU MIGHT'A SEEN ME THERE,
STOP
I JUST DROPPED A LOAD OF SALSA.

CHOURS

CODA
I SAID WHERE I COME FROM
ITS CORNBREAD AND CHICKEN.
WHERE I COME FROM
LOT OF FRONT PORCH SITTING.
WHERE I COME FROM
TRYING TO MAKE A LIVING,
AND WORKING HARD TO GET TO HEAVEN,
WHERE I COME FROM
