When we were young, our world was no bigger
Than the foot prints that we made
The years have gone by and now we call them "history"
But still here you have stayed
And I'm sure you've got your reasons
For watching the passing seasons
As they all fall down
But you've got to leave your hometown

There was a time I thought I knew nearly everything
That I could expect to know,
But the further from home my poor feet have carried me
The smaller I seem to grow
There's so much that I have seen
Some of it sacred and some obscene
Don't you let yourself down
You've gotta leave your hometown

You gotta leave your hometown
Leave your hometown
Leave your hometown
Leave your hometown
You don't have to leave it for long
Just leave it by far
Catch a ride on a passing ship
Follow someone else's star
Just a thousand miles away...
Pack a bag, let's leave today
Leave your hometown!
You gotta leave your hometown

If you come with me, we'll find ourselves a place where
Nobody knows our names
You and I will learn a few new ways to choose family
And kindle a couple of flames
We'll attend many grand occasions
And meet strangers of all persuasions
Wearing suits and gowns
Who all left their hometowns

You gotta leave your hometown
Leave your hometown
Leave your hometown
Leave your hometown
You don't have to leave it for long
Just leave it by far
Catch a ride on a passing ship
Follow someone else's star
Just a thousand miles away...
Pack a bag, let's leave today
Leave your hometown!
You gotta leave your hometown

And then someday, when you've had your fill
You will finally return
To the streets you wore so thin with walking, to the
Good things that you've earned
Maybe nothing will look the same...
And maybe this ain't the place you came
From, but nothing's torn down
You left your hometown
