Well I was rollin´ wheels and shiftin´ gears

´Round that Jersey Turnpike

When Barney stopped me with his gun

Ten minutes after midnight

Said sir you broke the limit in that rusty ol´ truck

I don´t know about that accent son

Just where do you come from

I said where I come from

It´s cornbread and chicken

Where I come from a lotta front porch sittin´

Where I come from tryin´ to make a livin´

And workin´ hard to get to heaven

Where I come from

Well I was south of Detroit City

I pulled in this country kitchen

To try their brand of barbecue

The sign said finger-lickin´

Well I paid the tab and the lady asked me

How´d I like my biscuit

I´ll be honest with you ma´am

It ain´t like mama fixed it

´Cause where I come from

It´s cornbread and chicken

Where I come from a lotta front porch pickin´

Where I come from tryin´ to make a livin´

Workin´ hard to get to heaven

Where I come from

I was chasin´ sun on 101

Somewhere around Ventura

I lost a universal joint and I had to use my finge

This tall lady stopped and asked

If I had plans for dinne

Said no thanks ma´am， back home

We like the girls that sing soprano

´Cause where I come from

It´s cornbread and chicken

Where I come from a lotta front porch sittin´

Where I come from tryin´ to make a livin´

Workin´ hard to get to heaven

Where I come from

Well I was headed home on 65

Somewhere around Kentucky

The CB rang for a bobtail rig

That´s rollin´ on like thunde

Well I answered him and he asked me

Aren´t you from out in Tulsa

No， but you might have seen me there

I just dropped a load of salsa

Where I come from it´s cornbread and chicken

Where I come from a lotta back porch pickin´

Where I come from tryin´ to make a livin´

Workin´ hard to get to heaven

Where I come from

Where I come from

Yeah where I come from

A lotta front porch sitting

Starin´ up at heaven

Where I come from

Where I come from

Tryin´ to make a livin´

Tryin´ to make a livin´

Oh， where I come from

Where I come from

Yeah， where I come from

Get back down there sometime

Where I come from
