Big kid, big city, don’t feel the same
When I look around, I don’t know the name
Of the sweet, little lady in the checkout lane
It’s so strange to me

And my studio don’t got the room
Of the place I used to watch cartoons
I need to go back there real soon
Just so you’ll see

My hometown, when I drive around
The smooth black streets with rocks on the ground
To see that old little house, a shade of brown
That’s where I grew up

You see that football field, fresh cut and green
In the backyard of the most beautiful girl I’d seen
That’s what I thought when I was thirteen
Yeah, life ain’t tough

And you get those buddies together one time a year
Talkin’ glory days and the God we fear
Makin’ fun of Big Jimmy ‘cause he got the tears
Running down his face

Then we all agree that this little town
Has got its ups and it’s got its downs
But growing up somewhere else around
Wouldn’t beat this place

Yeah, that’s my hometown

Then you take me somewhere down the road
No dot on the map, but it’s called Blacks Grove
A town you could span with a baseball throw
That I’d never been

You see the beat-up trailer where you spent your teens
And the little white church on First and Main
Stood by your mama’s side on her wedding day
Then you say

My hometown, when I drive around
The rocky road streets with a bottle of Crown
To find a place to park so we could put it down
I can take you there

And as soon as you step in that high school gym
You can point to the spot sat old man Tim
Came to every game from net to rim
Didn’t know a soul

And there’s a Dairy Queen just past the light
Where me and my friends met every Friday night
Buying ice cream cones and a bag of fries
Thought we were cool

Then we all agree that this little town
Has got its ups and it’s got its downs
But growing up somewhere else around
Wouldn’t beat this place

Yeah, that’s my hometown

It’s where I learned to ride my bike
And I shot hoops on that little Tike
My dad would throw me nothin’ but strikes

I had my first love and my first kiss
In the place I always seem to miss
I never thought I would feel like this

And the lights that go up and down
The main street of this little town
Might as well be my runway to touch down

‘Cause if I ever need a piece of home
I know just right where I’ll go
By plane or train or even county road

Yeah, that’s my hometown, when I drive around
The smooth black streets with rocks on the ground
To see that old little house, a shade of brown
That’s where I grew up

You see that football field, fresh cut and green
In the backyard of the most beautiful girl I’d seen
That’s what I thought when I was thirteen
Yeah, life ain’t tough

And you get those buddies together one time a year
Talkin’ glory days and the God we fear
Makin’ fun of Big Jimmy ‘cause he got the tears
Running down his face

Then we all agree that this little town
Has got its ups and it’s got its downs
But growing up somewhere else around
Wouldn’t beat this place

Yeah, that’s my hometown
