Damn I used to love this view

sit here and drink a few

Main street and

the high school

lit up on Friday night

Down there it's

another touchdown

man this year's team is stout

I can hear them goin' crazy

and up here so am I

Thinkin' 'bout you

sittin' there sayin'

I hate this I hate it

If you couldn't stand livin' here

why'd you take it take it

Give me back

my hometown

'Cos this is my

hometown

All the colors of my youth

the red the green

the hope the truth

Are beatin' me black and blue

'cos you're in every scene

My friends try to cheer me up

get together at the pizza Hut

I didn't have the heart to tell

them that was our place

These sleepy streetlights on

every sidewalk side street

Shed a light on everything

that used to be

Give me back

my hometown

'Cos this is my

hometown

Yeah yeah

oh oh oh oh yeah yeah

Ah ooh

oh oh oh oh yeah yeah

You can have

my grandma's locket

The knife out of

my grandpa's pocket

Yeah my state champion jacket

I don't care you can have it

Every made memory

every picture every

broken dream

Yeah everything

everything everything

Give me back

my hometown

'Cos this is my

hometown

Yeah yeah

oh oh oh oh yeah yeah

Ah ooh

oh oh oh oh yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah

oh oh oh oh yeah yeah yeah

Ah ooh

oh oh oh oh yeah yeah yeah

Ah ooh ooh ooh

ah ooh ooh ooh

Ah ooh ooh ooh

ah ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ah ooh ooh ooh ooh
