Charlie Robison - My Hometown Lyrics
Well, i had a buddy back in '81,and we made ourselves a pact.We were headin' for the new pipelines,we weren't never comin' back.well we worked 80 hours making time and a half,but La Grange was too damn hot.we drove back home at the end of that weekand we spent it all on pot.Chorus:I'll see you in houston, if i ever get out that way,i'll see you in dallas, but i wont have long to stay,if ur ever out west soon, and ur feeling like slowing down,i'll see you around, around my hometown.Well, i played ball every single fall,i could run just like the wind.Went to college like they asked me toobut they didn't ask my friends.dont think i seen a single classroom,but i drank a lot of beer.buddies still love to listen to me when i talk about that year.Chorus:so i'll see you in houston, if i'm ever get out that way.i'll see you in dallas, but i wont have long to stay,if you're ever out west soon, and you're feeling like slowing down.i'll see you around, around my hometown.Now i got myself a little band, and we're pretty good i guessbut i never learned how to wear my hair, and i never learned how to dress.so i'm leaving for the last time honey,i'm never more to rome.gonna pack my bags a little heavy this time gonna head my ass back home.Chorus:so i'll see you in Nashville, if i ever get out that way.i'll see you in Austin, but i wont have long to stay,if ur ever out west soon, and ur feeling like slowin down.i'll see you around, around my hometown.i'll see you around, around my hometown
