Don't Forget Where You Came From

Them Carolina blue skies

Are never far from my mind

I can see them tall pines

Every time I close my eyes

Them old back roads

I still know where they go and where they lead

Take me to the dive bar when I'm home

You know everything's on me

No matter how far away I go

You gotta keep that home close

You know that's right, yeah

And don't forget where you came from

From both sides of the tracks

Remember where you're goin'

Where all the family's at

Don't forget the ones who raised you

Whipped your ass, prayed for and praised you

And made you who you are

And kept you out of the trap

You can always go back when it's said and done

Don't forget where you came from

Lessons I learned sittin' in church

Have kept me from takin' too many wrong turns

Them football scars, they still hurt

But the memories make it all worth

Comin' from a place that showed me

Saved me, made me holy

Don't forget where you came from

No, no, no, no, no, no, no

I won't dare forget (I won't dare forget)

I won't dare forget where I came from (I won't dare forget)

I won't dare forget (I won't dare forget)

I won't dare forget where I (I won't dare forget)

I won't dare forget (I won't dare forget)

I won't dare forget where I came from

I'ma say it again

I won't dare forget

I won't forget where I came from

No, no, no, no
