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

Chorus:

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 (x 4)



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 (x 4)



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.
