Where I'm from - the river runs wide
muddy black and the cane grows high
sweet magnolia - cypress knees -
front proch lovin' baby just you and me
where I'm from - should be no surprise
gulf winds blowin' accross big blue sky
sweet potatoes and black eye peas
down home lovin' baby just you and me
Take my hand - lets walk for a while
give you a kiss - just to see you smile
come on baby - lets dream for a while
fall in love - by the riverside
river runs deep - down inside
where my love flows - there's no compromise
bow your head and feel that pride
brown water of love runnin' sweet as wine
