[00:01.86] Alan Jackson - Where I Come from
[00:20.17] Well I was rollin' wheels and shiftin' gears
[00:22.35] 'Round that Jersey Turnpike
[00:24.29] When Barney stopped me with his gun
[00:26.10] Ten minutes after midnight
[00:27.85] Said sir you broke the limit in this rusty ol' truck
[00:30.97] I don't know about that accent son
[00:33.34] Just where did you come from
[00:35.16] I said where I come from
[00:37.03] It's cornbread and chicken
[00:39.18] Where I come from a lotta front porch sittin'
[00:43.00] Where I come from tryin' to make a livin'
[00:46.88] And workin' hard to get to heaven
[00:50.07] Where I come from
[00:51.79]
[00:54.79] Well I was south of Detroit City
[00:56.72] I pulled in this country kitchen
[00:58.72] To try their brand of barbecue
[01:00.77] The sign said finger-lickin'
[01:02.72] Well I paid the tab and the lady asked me
[01:04.86] How'd I like my biscuit
[01:06.35] I'll be honest with you ma'am
[01:08.55] It ain't like mama fixed it
[01:09.99] 'Cause where I come from
[01:12.19] It's cornbread and chicken
[01:13.70] Where I come from a lotta front porch pickin'
[01:17.52] Where I come from tryin' to make a livin'
[01:21.69] And workin' hard to get to heaven
[01:24.69] Where I come from
[01:26.45]
[01:44.92] I was chasin' sun on 101
[01:46.79] Somewhere around Ventura
[01:48.66] I lost a universal joint and I had to use my finger
[01:52.53] This tall lady stopped and asked
[01:54.59] If I had plans for dinner
[01:56.30] Said no thanks ma'am, back home
[01:57.97] We like the girls that sing soprano
[02:00.02] 'Cause where I come from
[02:02.16] It's cornbread and chicken
[02:03.77] Where I come from a lotta front porch sittin'
[02:07.52] Where I come from tryin' to make a livin'
[02:11.57] And workin' hard to get to heaven
[02:14.69] Where I come from
[02:16.69]
[02:34.90] Well I was headed home on 65
[02:36.83] Somewhere around Kentucky
[02:38.64] The CB rang for a bobtail rig
[02:40.70] That's rollin' on like thunder
[02:42.51] Well I answered him and he asked me
[02:44.57] Aren't you from out in Tulsa
[02:46.57] No, but you might have seen me there
[02:48.50] I just dropped a load of salsa
[02:50.25] Where I come from it's cornbread and chicken
[02:53.86] Where I come from a lotta front porch pickin'
[02:57.56] Where I come from tryin' to make a livin'
[03:01.50] And workin' hard to get to heaven
[03:04.62] Where I come
[03:05.87] Where I come from yeah it's cornbread and chicken
[03:09.24] Where I come from a lotta back porch pickin'
[03:12.92] Where I come from tryin' to make a livin'
[03:16.99] And workin' hard to get to heaven
[03:20.04] Where I come from
[03:21.85]
[03:24.04] Where I come from
[03:25.54]
[03:27.41] Yeah where I come from
[03:29.28]
[03:30.53] A lotta front porch sitting
[03:32.89]
[03:33.78] Starin' up at heaven
[03:35.52] Where I come from
[03:36.90]
[03:39.39] Where I come from
[03:40.76]
[03:42.32] Tryin' to make a livin'
[03:43.88]
