Jackson Alan


Lead in: 4/4time- E   A   E   A   E   A   B7   A   E   

E                                                                                                      
Well I was rollin’ wheels and shiftin’ gears round that Jersey Turnpike
E                                                                 
When Barney stopped me with his gun ten minutes after midnight
E                                                                        
Said sir you broke the limit in that rusty ol’ truck
        G                                E                        
I don’t know about that accent son, just where do you come from?

Chorus:
Lick starts
        E                      A                                    
 I said where I come from it’s cornbread and chicken
E                                    A            
Where I come from lot of front porch sittin’
 E                            A                        
Where I come from tryin’ to make a livin’ 
       B7                     A            E
Workin’ hard to get to heaven where I come from


Verse II:
E                                                             
Well I was south of Detroit city, pulled in this country kitchen
E                                                                           
To try their brand of barbeque the sign said finger lickin’
E                                                                                           
Well I paid the tab and the lady asked me how’d I like my biscuit
        G                        E                                   
I’ll be honest with you ma’am it ain’t like mama fixed it







Chorus:
Lick starts
       Ĕ                                 A
 Cause where I come from it’s cornbread and chicken
 E                                   A
Where I come from lot of front porch pickin’  
 E                                 A
Where I come from tryin’ to make a livin’
 B7                           A            E
Workin’ hard to get to heaven where I come from


Verse III:
E                        
I was chasin’ sun on 101 somewhere around Ventura
E                     
I lost a universal joint and I had to use my finger
E                  
This tall lady stopped and asked if I had plans for dinner
     G                                      E            
Said no thanks ma’am, back home we like the girls that sing soprano

Chorus:
Lick starts
       Ĕ                                    A
 Cause where I come from it’s cornbread and chicken
   E                                 A
Where I come from lot of front porch sittin’ 
    E                              A                        
Where I come from tryin’ to make a livin’ 
        B7                    A            E         
Workin’ hard to get to heaven where I come from  








Verse IV:
E                                            
Well I was headed home on 65 somewhere around Kentucky
E                                              
The CB rang for a bobtail rig that’s rollin’ on like thunder
E                                            
Well I answered him and he asked me aren’t you from out in Tulsa
  G                                      E
No, but you might’a seen me there I just dropped a load of salsa


Chorus:
Lick starts
Ĕ                                   A
Where I come from it’s cornbread and chicken
E                                       A
Where I come from lot of front porch sittin’ 
     E                      A
Where I come from tryin’ to make a livin’

Workin’ hard to get to heaven where I come from

          Ĕ                                   A
I said where I come from it’s cornbread and chicken
E                                   A
Where I come from lot of back porch pickin’  
     E                      A
Where I come from tryin’ to make a livin’ 
B7                            A            E

 B7               A                                     E
Starin’ up at heaven where I come from
