Whole Lotta Hometowns

(альбом: Stronger Than I Am - 2021)

Every time that I'm driving down I-85
Doesn't hit me 'til that exit sign
Better stop at the shop to see Ron and say hi
It's a little outta the way, but I
Miss those faces, places 'round my
Growing up stomping grounds

There's a whole lotta hometowns
Whole lotta Main Streets
Whole lotta parking lots packed for the home team
Whole lotta post-game parties
And their pocket fifths tipped to the sky, oh-oh
Might be called different names
But they all look the same
Different numbers on the population sign
There's a whole lotta hometowns
Yeah, but only one of them's mine

Most of 'em got a Waffle House
Where you go when you're wasted, but
Did your friends get kicked out for
Talking back to the waitress?
Every year when the summer came
Everybody knew we
Hit the spot with the rope swing on the Chattahoochee
Been around the block from coast to coast
Just long enough to know

There's a whole lotta hometowns
Whole lotta Main Streets
Whole lotta parking lots packed for the home team
Whole lotta post-game parties
And their pocket fifths tipped to the sky, oh-oh
Might be called different names
But they all look the same
Different numbers on the population sign
There's a whole lotta hometowns
Yeah, but only one of them's mine, oh yeah
But only one of them's mine

Doesn't matter where you started
Doesn't matter where you go
Every time you stop for gas
Somebody calls that map dot home

There's a whole lotta hometowns
Whole lotta Main Streets
Whole lotta parking lots packed for the home team
Whole lotta post-game parties
And their pocket fifths tipped to the sky, oh-oh
Might be called different names
But they all look the same
Different numbers on the population sign
There's a whole lotta hometowns
Yeah, but only one of them's mine, oh yeah
But only one of them's mine
