Where I Grew Up

Where I grew up We rode around with shotguns Everybody had one In their truck And that old screen door It was always standing open Everybody knowin' It wasn't locked up And we never had to worry 'bout a thing Where I grew up We had a dirt road underneath our feet And Old Glory flying high in every yard Yeah and probably to some It didn't look like much But we always had enough Where I grew up Momma drug your butt to church And those whippins always hurt more When you had to pick your own switch We were tough We didn't have time to complain And we didn't sweat the small things No matter what Somehow we all survived Where I grew up We had a dirt road underneath our feet And Old Glory flying high in every yard Yeah and probably to some It didn't look like much But we always had enough Where I grew up Where I grew up Where I grew up That's where they'll lay me down On the outskirts of town On that quiet piece of land Where I grew up We had a dirt road underneath our feet And Old Glory flying high in every yard Yeah and probably to some It didn't look like much But we always had enough With Mom and Daddy's love Where I grew up Where I grew up
