Sit down on my leg
Let me tell you little story about where I've been
Through bridges and tracks
In and out of towns
You wanna know some more?
You better sit down
Grew up traveling state to state
Grew up on many of an air force base
Drive on in, drive on out,
Enough time to feed my soul
Enough time to feed my mouth
Home aint where I was born
Left Charleston at two years old
Nothing left there to call home
I'm in Long Beach tonight
I just stopped in
So don't ask me where I'm from
Ask me, where I'm going Daddy raised me grandpa grandma too
Three generations underneath one roof
Sister and I lived on the fly, daddy got his orders
Time to say goodbye
You keep in touch with those who are worth your time
Home aint where I was born
Left Charleston at two years old
Nothing left there to call home
I'm in Long Beach tonight
I just stopped in
So don't ask me where I'm from
Ask me, where I'm going Opportunity may knock on my door
Well, your damn sure my ship ain't sitting by the shore
There's a big bright world out there for me
To not turn my eyes to the see
Wherever I am that's where I'll be,.from.
