Jason Michael Carroll – Where I’m From Lyrics

Artist: Jason Michael Carroll
Song: Where I’m From

On a three hour flight from Memphis to LA
I was silently celebrating my first class upgrade
Laughing at my jeans and my boots
Beside those high dollar shoes and Armani suits

When the gentleman next to me said the drinks up here are free
So if you’d like the first one can be on me
He said I’m heading back from business in New York and Rome
Tell me son, Where do you call home

I said I’m from the front pew of a wooden white church
The courthouse clock it still dont work
Where a man’s word means everything
Where moms and dads were high school flings

Gave their children grandmothers maiden name
Yes it may not sound like much
But its where I’m from
So we drank that round and then another

There wasn’t a topic in this world we did not cover
He said I headed out west when I was barely 19
Just a kid chasing my dreams
I said I’m flying out here to pick up my big brother

He’s been fighting the cancer they discovered
But he called last night and said I think this is the end
So come take me home to my family and my friends
Where the quarterback dates the homecoming queen

The truck’s a ford and the tractor’s green
And Amazing Grace is what we sing
Well there’s a county fair every fall
And your friends are there no matter when you call

Yeah It may not sound like much but it’s
Where I’m from
And as we stood to claim the bags we checked
He said I’ll pray for your brother and did I mention that

Italian suits haven’t always been my style
See I was quarterback of my high school team
We took state back in ’63
And my wife, she’s still my homecoming queen

Cause I’m from the front pew of a wooden white church
A courthouse clock that still don’t work
Where a man’s word means everything
Where moms and dads were high school flings

Gave their children grandmothers maiden name
Yes it may not sound like much
I said it may not sound like much but it’s where I’m from
It’s where I’m from

Where I’m from
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound
