Hometown |
Oh you can see it when you close your eyes |
A Norman Rockwell painting come to life |
With all the colors of a stained-glass window |
All the characters and old dogs and kin folk |
And it smells like bar-b-que and old garden roses |
Yells like cheerleaders and football coaches |
And it walks like a mayor and it dances like a prom |
And it sleeps like a porch and it cooks like your mama |
Hometown, hometown |
May be the sweetest word with the sweetest sound |
Hometown |
And it’s growing like tomatoes on the vine |
Fading like a Dr. Pepper sign |
Still preaching like a Pentecostal |
And fishing like a backslider |
And pulling little sisters in bright red radio flyers |
And it marches in the veteran’s day parade |
And it proudly lets old glory wave |
It’s rodeos and county fairs |
All farris wheels and canned up pears |
It’ll let you go just to welcome you back |
No it don’t get no better than that |
Our hometown, yeah your hometown, hey our hometown, your hometown |
Oh you can see it when you close your eyes |
