Back Home Lyrics by Jimmy Norman

Little Pieces by Jimmy Norman

2004

>
Where I come from everybody's poor
Even Reverend Jason’s
Got a rent sign on the door
And every Sunday morning
He pass around the plate
Say he's making sure
That the sick and the shut-ins ate
I was pretty young then
Adventure in my blood
Anxious to get away
Determined to do good
Then I got a break
Start singing with a band
Figured I'd earn some bread
And give folks a hand back home
Grandpa used to tell me boy
Don’t say what you don't mean
See everything is black and white
There ain't no in between
Now Grandpa didn't know it all
And yet he taught me well
Hadn't been for Grandpa
I'da really caught hell
