6 6 -8 8 8
I was eight years old
6 -8 8 8 8 -9 8 -8 -8
and run-ning with a dime in my hand
6 6 6 7 -8 -8 -8 7
In-to the bus stop to pick up
-8 -8 -8 -8 8 -8 7 7 -6
a pa-per for my old- man -
6 -8 8 8 8 6 6 -8 8 8 8
I'd sit on his lap in that big old Bu-ick
8 -9 -9 -9 8 -8 -8
and steer as we drove through town
6 7 -8 -8 -8 6 7
He'd tou-sle my hair and say,
-8 -8 -8 8 -8 7 7 -6
"son take a good look a-round-
4 4 5 6 6
This is your home-town,
8 8 -9 8 -8 -8
this is your home- town
6 6 7 -8 -8
This is your home-town,
-8 -8 8 -8 7 7 -6
this is your home- town -
verse 2.
In `65 tension was running high at my high school
There was a lot of fights between the black and white
There was nothing you could do
Two cars at a light on a Saturday night
in the back seat there was a gun
Words were passed in a shotgun blast
Troubled times had come to my hometown
My hometown, my hometown, my hometown
6 -8 7 7 7 -8 7
Now Main Street's white-washed win-dows
6 -8 8 8 -8 7
and va-cant stores- -
7 -8 7 7 7 -8 7
Seems like there ain't no-bod-y
7 7 7 -8 8 8 8
wants to come down here no more
7 -8 7 7 7 -8 7 7
They're clos-ing down the tex-tile mill
-8 -8 -8 8 8 8 -8 7
a-cross the rail-road tracks- -
7 7 -8 7 7 7 -8 7 7
Fore-man says these jobs are go-ing boys
-8 8 8 -9 8 -8 -8 6
and they ain't com-ing - back to
5 6 6 -9 8 -8 -8
Your home-town, your home - town,
7 -8 -8 8 -8 7 7 -6
your home-town, your home - town -
verse 3.
Last night me and Kate we laid in bed
talking about getting out
Packing up our bags maybe heading south
I'm thirty-five we got a boy of our own now
Last night I sat him up behind the wheel and said
son take a good look around
This is your hometown |
