Where I Grew Up (A Jeremy Recording)

[Instrumental] [Male voice]  [Verse] We were country, where I grew up, All dirt roads, and a pickup truck, Milking cows, in the morning air, Mendin' fence in the middle of, --- nowhere.  (Yeah, we were country, where I grew up.)  [Pre-chorus] I figured, it was, the way of life, To help each other, when in strife.  [Chorus] Ya, always knew, the worth of a man, Saw him work, with his own two hands. He’d be there, when you need a friend, Ooh, but, that was back then, --- way back then.  [Vese 2] Loven life, when a babe was born, Goin’ to church, on a Sunday morn.  (Yeah, we were country, where I grew up.)  [Guitar Instrumental]  [Pre-chorus] We’d take jam with homemade bread, To a pal or neighbor, when sick in bed.  [Chorus] Ya, always knew the worth of a man, Saw him work with his own two hands. He’d be there, when you need a friend, Ooh, but, that was back then, --- way back then.  [Bridge] We fixed what broke, with baling wire. Telling tales, by the evening fire. Wore bare feet, in the summer grass, Learning life lessons, --- that would forever last.  [Outro] It gave me strength, when times got tough, Thank God, I grew up, where it was enough. I wouldn't trade it, no matter what, no matter what.  Ya, we were country, where I grew up. (Where I grew up.)
