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,
tan legs in the broad daylight
