“Hometown” is a song about the places and people that shape us. No matter where life takes us, there’s something about the streets we grew up on, the memories we made, and the people who knew us first that never really leaves us.
Lyrics
HOMETOWN
Everybody coming from someplace
From big cities to wide spots
Just check out an old map
A bunch a lines connecting black dots
All gotta story to tell
Yeah, they all got a story to tell
There’s one down every road
It doesn’t matter where you go
But after all these miles I’ve found
Nothing like a drive down Main Street
Where you’re always 18
And you can’t wait to leave but you can’t wait to get back
To that home ground
To the main stream
Ain’t gotta be nobody else free to be myself in may hometown
Nothing like a football Friday night
Nothing like a hometown hero
Making it home safe after a tour overseas
It’s more than bricks and buildings
Yeah, it’s a way of life
It’s a dream, its a place, its a start
Its the very beat of my heart
It’s an old familiar sound
Nothing like a drive down Main Street
Where you’re always 18
And you can’t wait to leave but you can’t wait to get back
To that home ground
To the main stream
Ain’t gotta be nobody else free to be myself in may hometown
We’re all the same
Just trying to make a name
Trying to make our mommas proud
Nothing like a drive down Main Street
Where you’re always 18
And you can’t wait to leave but you can’t wait to get back
To that home ground
To the main stream
Ain’t gotta be nobody else free to be myself in may hometown
Yeah in my hometown
