Let me take you to my hometown, show you who I was
Everything it don't have, everything it does
Let me show you where I'm from
'Cause it made me who I've become

Let me take you to my first house
It was red then, but it's painted white
First downs with best friends every Friday night
Roofs that I smoked on, streets that I wrecked on
Methodist church bells and Mexican restaurants

We'll pump gas before we pay for it
On some backroad, ain't got no name for it
Headlights shinin' to forever
Promise you gon' know me better

Let me take you to my hometown, show you who I was
Everything it don't have, everything it does
Let me show you where I'm from
'Cause it made me who I've become (who I've become)
Let me take you to my hometown, show you who I was
Everything it don't have, everything it does
Let me show you where I'm from
'Cause it made me who I've become
Let me take you to my

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Let me take you to my first job
Bored to death of this city pool
First fight, took an L, but I played it cool
Let's find the right day, here in a week or two
Ease down the highway, one that lead me to you

We'll pump gas before we pay for it
On some backroad, ain't got no name for it
Headlights shinin' to forever
Promise you gon' know me better

Let me take you to my hometown, show you who I was
Everything it don't have, everything it does
Let me show you where I'm from
'Cause it made me who I've become (who I've become)
Let me take you to my hometown, show you who I was
Everything it don't have, everything it does
Let me show you where I'm from
'Cause it made me who I've become (show you where I'm from)
Let me take you to my

Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

Oh, oh 
Oh, oh (show you where I'm, show, show, show, show)
(Show you where I'm, show you where I'm from)
(Show you where I'm, show you where I'm from, from, from, from)
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

Let me take you to my hometown, show you who I was
Everything it don't have, everything it does
Let me show you where I'm from
'Cause it made me who I've become
Let me take you to my hometown, show you who I was
Everything it don't have, everything it does
Let me show you where I'm from
