Well, I was baptized at the Baptist church And my old man taught me 'bout a hard days work I learned how to love, learned how to fight It's where we keep our cash in a dresser drawer Underneath the forty-four And if we do you 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 Your 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 Hit a bully in the nose if he crosses the line 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 here In this little town And 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
