Back Where I Come From (new recording with Kenny’s Band) Lyrics

Kenny Chesney

Thank y′all very much
Okay, Dallas I want to play y'all a song now that I′ve
I've got to say, it's one of my favorite songs, that I′ve ever recorded for a lot of reasons
But it paints the perfect picture of what it′s like growing up in the country
And in East Tennessean, it was no different for me
I, ah, it's called, "Back where I come from"
I hope y′all enjoy this

Well in the town where I was raised
The clock ticks and the cattle graze
Time passed with amazing grace
Back where I come from

You could lie on a riverbank
Or paint your name on a water tank
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 moon shine too
Back where I come from

Blue eyes on a Saturday night
Tiny 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 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

That′s where I come from
I′m an old Tennessean
(I'm proud) I′m proud as anyone
That's where I come from

Back where I come from
Back where I come from
Back where I come from
We say we love you all, thank you
I love you
