时长: 04:24
On a three hour flight from Memphis to LA[00:00:07]
I was silently celebrating my first class upgrade[00:00:14]
Laughing at my jeans and my boots[00:00:21]
Beside those high dollar shoes and Armani suits[00:00:26]
When the gentleman next to me said the drinks up here are free[00:00:33]
So if you'd like the first one can be on me[00:00:39]
He said i'm headin back from business in New York and Rome[00:00:45]
Tell me son Where do you call home[00:00:52]
I said I'm from the front pew of a wooden white church[00:00:58]
The courthouse clock it still don't work[00:01:02]
Where a man's word means everything[00:01:05]
Where moms and dads were high school flings[00:01:11]
Gave their children grandmothers maiden name[00:01:15]
Yes it may not sound like much[00:01:18]
But it's where I'm from[00:01:22]
So we drank that round and then another[00:01:31]
There wasn't a topic in this world we did not cover[00:01:36]
He said I headed out west when I was barely 19[00:01:43]
Just a kid chasing my dreams[00:01:50]
I said I'm flying out here to pick up my big brother[00:01:55]
He's been fighting the cancer they discovered[00:02:02]
But he called last night and said I think this is the end[00:02:09]
So come take me home to my family and my friends[00:02:14]
Where the quarterback dates the homecoming queen[00:02:20]
The truck's a ford and the tractor's green[00:02:25]
And Amazing Grace is what we sing[00:02:28]
Well there's a county fair every fall[00:02:34]
And your friends are there every time you call[00:02:38]
Yeah it may not sound like much but it's[00:02:41]
Where I'm from[00:02:46]
And as we stood to claim the bags we checked[00:02:54]
He said I'll pray for your brother and did I mention that[00:02:57]
Italian suits haven't always been my style[00:03:01]
See I was quarterback of my high school team[00:03:06]
We took state back in '63[00:03:10]
And my wife she's still my homecoming queen[00:03:13]
Cause I'm from the front pew of a wooden white church[00:03:22]
A courthouse clock that still don't work[00:03:26]
Where a man's word means everything[00:03:29]
Where moms and dads wear high school flings[00:03:35]
Gave their children grandmothers maiden name[00:03:39]
Yes it may not sound like much[00:03:42]
I said it may not sound like much but it's where i'm from[00:03:48]
It's where i'm from[00:03:59]
It's where I'm from[00:04:06]
