Well I was baptized at the Baptist church
 And my old man taught me 'bout a hard day's 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 [bad word] sure make it right

 [bad word] ]
 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

 [bad word] ]
 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

 [bad word] ]
 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
