Hometown lyrics

[Intro]
Well I've been stuck in this town for so long
I thought I would go nuts
I don't know where I'm going
But I know that there's just too damn much


I want to leave this small city
And find out what them big towns have got
Though when I show up there
There ain't a whole lot more to spare than what I thought

[Pre-Chorus]
It ain't better there, or what you've heard
Or whatever the hell you thought

[Chorus]
In my hometown, living life while I'm away
Yeah my sound, a radio in my drive-way
There's no better day
I didn't even know it yet
Impossible to forget
I'll miss you when I'm gone
Lord, I'll miss you when I'm gone

[Verse]
As I walk through these neon lights
Don't know where the hell I am tonight
Just another big 'ol city
Don't you think she's pretty
But I'm left here all alone
[Pre-Chorus]
It ain't better there, or what you heard
Or whatever the hell you thought

[Chorus]
In my hometown, living life while I'm away
Yeah my sound, a radio in my drive-way
There's no better day
I didn't even know it yet
Impossible to forget
I'll miss you when I'm gone
Lord, I'll miss you when I'm gone

[Bridge]
And I think back, talking trash and sitting on football fields
Way after midnight, talking bout how reckless we feel
I remember throwing rocks, up at your window sill
Oh how it feels

[Chorus]
In my hometown, living life while I'm away
My sound, a radio in my drive-way
There's no better day
I didn't even know it yet
Impossible to forget
I'll miss you when I'm gone
Lord, I'll miss you when I'm gone
