Well I'm livin' with the mistakes I've made
Plenty more where I'm from
I’m robbin' peter so paul gets paid
Plenty more where I'm from
I’ve strayed so far from the open road
I've been places my shadow refused to go
I went to school but they called me slow
Plenty more where I'm from
They couldn't teach me what I needed to know
Plenty more where I'm from
My heart still breaks & my throat it swells
Like a dirty lump o' coal at the new year bell's
A song of hope to lift my spirits if you please
Or a tale of old rebellion if you dare
I hope I live to see the day I laugh at days like these
And walk the walk of one without a care
I'll shift my load but I won't shift the blame
Plenty more where I'm from
I respect my neighbour and expect the same
Plenty more where I'm from
I’ve strayed so far from the open road
I've been places my shadow refused to go
I don't trust what I can't see
Plenty more where I'm from
But I believe in something higher than me
Plenty more where I'm from
My heart still breaks & my throat it swells
Like a dirty lump o' coal at the new year bell's
