    Lyrics:
    Well I was rollin' wheels and shiftin' gears
    'Round that Jersey Turnpike
    When Barney stopped me with his gun
    Ten minutes after midnight
    Said sir you broke the limit in this rusty ol' truck
    I don't know about that accent son
    Just where did you come from
    I said where I come from
    It's cornbread and chicken
    Where I come from a lotta front porch sittin'
    Where I come from, tryin' to make a livin'
    And workin' hard to get to heaven
    Where I come from
    Well I was south of Detroit City
    I pulled in this country kitchen
    To try their brand of barbecue
    The sign said finger-lickin'
    Well I paid the tab and the lady asked me
    How'd you like my biscuit
    I'll be honest with you ma'am
    It ain't like mama fixed it
    'Cause where I come from
    It's cornbread and chicken
    Where I come from a lotta front porch pickin'
    Where I come from, tryin' to make a livin'
    And workin' hard to get to heaven
    Where I come from
    I was chasin' sun on 101
    Somewhere around Ventura
    I lost a universal joint and I had to use my finger
    This tall lady stopped and asked
    If I had plans for dinner
    Said no thanks ma'am, back home
    We like the girls that sing soprano
    'Cause where I come from
    It's cornbread and chicken
    Where I come from a lotta front porch sitiin'
    Where I come from, tryin' to make a livin'
    And workin' hard to get to heaven
    Where I come from
    Well I was headed home on 65
    Somewhere around Kentucky
    And the CB rang for a bobtail rig
    That's rollin' on like thunder
    Well I answered him and he asked me
    Aren't you from out in Tulsa
    No, but you might'a seen me there
    I just dropped a load of salsa
    Where I come from
    It's cornbread and chicken
    Where I come from a lotta front porch pickin'
    Where I come from, tryin' to make a livin'
    And workin' hard to get to heaven
    Where I come from
    Where I come from yeah
    It's cornbread and chicken
    Where I come from a lotta back porch pickin'
    Where I come from, tryin' to make a livin'
    And workin' hard to get to heaven
    Where I come from
    Where I come from
    Yeah where I come from
    A lotta front porch sittin'
    Starin' up at heaven
    Where I come from
    Where I come from
    Tryin' to make a livin'
    Oh where I come from
    Where I come from

    Ever a problem in your marriage, turn to Alan!!! Thank you,every song teaches a lesson.In 1992 I was 17,mom was slowly dying of cancer and i was a teenage statistic:pregnant.My mom had heard "tonight I climb the walls", I was a punk rocker so I listened half-assed next thing i had tears pouring like waterfalls Mom died when my son turned 6 mo. I was19.I played "Chasing that neon rainbow" for him every night.As years passed,he tried to turn thug,now hes grown & anytime he drinks--Alan is here.

    Met Allan at the Waukesha County fair, back in the Neon Rainbow days. Didn't have anything for him to sign but a check, so he signed it. Took several pictures, that was back when you could stand side by side and talk and no gorillsa on steroids to keep you away. Great show.

    I quote this song all the time. I live in FL with people from many locations which aren't Southern. I'm from the outskirts of Tampa which is a lot more country than most outsiders think. So people ask me where my accent is from, where I get my manners, why I'm obsessed with UF football, etc. I always say where I come from and many times quote specific lyrics from the song. 99% of the people don't know Alan Jackson much less this song. I'm obviously talking about the non-Southerners. Reminds me of a question from Jeopardy last week. It was asking what river Alan Jackson was singing about, which he was water skiing in the music video. Sadly no one knew it. Ken Jennings then said I guess you're not Alan Jackson fans. It made me quite sad.
