I was baptized at the baptist church

My old man taught me 'bout a hard days work

I learned how to love and learned how to fight

It's where we keep our cash in a dresser drawer

Underneath the forty four

If we do ya wrong we damn sure make it right

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

A 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

And a boy really knows change to hit a bully in the nose

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

My roots are buried deep in this little town

One of these days it's where they'll put me in the ground

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

It's the only place that I call home, yeah
