The Only Place That I Call Home

[Verse 1] Well I was baptized at the Baptist church And my old man taught me 'bout a hard day's work I learned how to love, learned how to fight It's where we keep our cash in a dresser drawer Underneath the forty-four And if we do you wrong we damn sure make it right [Chorus] It's the only place that I call home No matter where in this country I might roam It's where the corn grows tall and the moonshine still flows It's the only place that I call home [Verse 2] Your word is good on a handshake Preacher still talks about a judgment day People gonna stop when a funeral passes by We say "yes sir" and say "yes ma'am Answer the call from Uncle Sam Hit a bully in the nose if he crosses the line [Chorus] [Bridge] My roots are buried deep here in this little town And one of these days it's where they'll put me in the ground [Chorus] [Outro] It's the only place that I call home yeah
