It was out on Paynes Prairie where I got my first kiss There's the school yard where we would play as kids We pulled arrow heads outa Hogtown Creek And when the cops came 'round, we'd hide our drinks Where I come from, it's a little like heaven And I can't stay gone to long Where I come from, yeah, yeah We'd water ski on Melrose Bay And we could wear flip flops on Christmas Day When we had enough cash for gasoline We'd all skip school and go to Crescent Beach Where I come from, it's a little like heaven
And I can't stay gone to long Where I come from, yeah, yeah There's the old grave yard where my loved ones lie The old church still stands there it's baptized It's the place I go when I can't think clear And when my time is up, bring me back here Where I come from, it's a little like heaven And I can't stay gone to long Where I come from, yeah, yeah
