John Anderson Where I Came From
Country sun don't set on a big city skyline; it's another
world altogether
City streets ain't no place to go huntin'; can't see the
stars, can't read the weather
Where I come from, it's wide open spaces, hills and
hollers, spirits running free
It's in your blood, just like the sun's up in the sky;
where I come from, it's hard to leave
Brick and concrete just make alleys and gutters; Lord
knows that's rocky ground for plowin'
City folks live stacked up on each other, and wake up to
the sound of sirens
Where I come from, it's wide open spaces, hills and
hollers, spirits running free
It's in your blood, just like the sun's up in the sky;
where I come from, it's hard to leave
It's hard to leave.
