i don't miss where i came from
but each night i dream about being back home
when i wake up in the morning
so i get up and go downtown
and pick me out a little piece of ground
where i can prove something to the world
i can prove something to the world
daddy put us in the truck and
dropped us off and said good luck
then one lucky kid waiting for the bus
made a winner out of one of us
going down to the railroad tracks
where people know that they better not relax
this is where i can make you understand
