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?
Chorus:
Lick starts
I said where I come from it?s cornbread and chicken
Where I come from lot of front porch sittin?
Where I come from tryin? to make a livin?
Workin? hard to get to heaven where I come from
Verse II:
Well I was south of Detroit city, pulled in this country kitchen
To try their brand of barbeque 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
Chorus:
Lick starts
Ĕ A
Cause where I come from it?s cornbread and chicken
Where I come from lot of front porch pickin?
Where I come from tryin? to make a livin?
Workin? hard to get to heaven where I come from
Verse III:
I was chasin? sun on 101 somewhere around Ventura
I lost a universal joint and I had to use my finger
This tall lady stopped and asked if I had plans for dinner
Said no thanks ma?am, back home we like the girls that sing soprano
Chorus:
Lick starts
Ĕ A
Cause where I come from it?s cornbread and chicken
Where I come from lot of front porch sittin?
Where I come from tryin? to make a livin?
Workin? hard to get to heaven where I come from
Verse IV:
Well I was headed home on 65 somewhere around Kentucky
The CB rang for a bobtail rig that?s rollin? on like thunder
Well I answered him and he asked me aren?t you from out in Tulsa
No, but you might?a seen me there I just dropped a load of salsa
Chorus:
Lick starts
Ĕ A
Where I come from it?s cornbread and chicken
Where I come from lot of front porch sittin?
Where I come from tryin? to make a livin?
Workin? hard to get to heaven where I come from
Chorus:
Lick starts
Ĕ A
I said where I come from it?s cornbread and chicken
Where I come from lot of 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, where I come from
Yeah, where I come from a lot of front porch sittin?
Starin? up at heaven where I come from
Where I come from, where I come from
tryin? to make a livin? Oh where I come from
