Where I'm From - King of the Road

On a three hour flight from Memphis to LA

I was silently celebrating my first class upgrade

Laughing at my jeans and my boots

Beside those high dollar shoes and Armani suits

When the gentleman next to me

Said the drinks up here are free

So if you'd like the first one can be on me

He said I'm headin' back from business

In New York and Rome

Tell me son where do you call home

I said I'm from the front pew of a wooden white church

A courthouse clock it still don't work

Where a man's word means everything

Where moms and dads were high school flames

That gave their children grandmother's maiden name

Yes it may not sound like much

But it's where I'm from

So we drank that round and then another

There wasn't a topic in this world

We did not cover

He said I headed out west

When I was barely nineteen

Just a kid chasing my dreams

And I said I'm flying out here

To pick up big brother

He's been fighting the cancer they discovered

But he called last night and said

I think this is the end

So come take me home to my family and my friends

Where the quarterback dates

The homecoming queen

The truck's a Ford and the tractor's green

And Amazing Grace is what we sing

Where there's a county fair every fall

And your friends are there no matter when you call

Yeah it may not sound like much

But it's where I'm from

And as we stood to claim the bags we checked

He said I'll pray for your brother

And did I mention that

Italian suits haven't always been my style

See I was the quarterback of my high school team

We took state back in '63

And my wife well she's still

My homecoming queen

'Cause I'm from the front pew of a wooden white church

A courthouse clock it still don't work

Where a man's word means everything

Where moms and dads were high school flame

That gave their children grandmother's maiden name

Yes it may not sound like much

I said it may not sound like much

But it's where I'm from

It's where I'm from

It's where I'm from
