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
