Thank God For Hometowns
Yesterday I got a callSomeone I didn’t know at all passed awayMama said yeah you know himYou went to school with both his kidsThey lived out on Prescott laneShe said you should’ve seen the lineMrs. Johnson said to tell you hi
[Chorus:]Thank God for hometownsAnd all the love that makes you go roundThank God for the country lines that welcome you back inWhen you were dying to get outThank God for Church pewsAnd all the faces that won’t forget youCause when you’re lost in this crazy worldYou got somewhere to go and get foundThank God for hometownsYeah
Last June my cousin tied the knot,Didn’t know if I’d go or notBut I’m sure glad I didIt was a pretty good haul but worth the driveI could feel myself come back to lifeThe closer that I’d getFirst red light I rollded the windows downBreathed it in and took a look around
[Chorus:]Thank God for hometownsFirst kisses and touchdownsThank God for the county lines that welcome you back inWhen you were dying to get outThank God for Church pewsAnd all the faces that won’t forget youAnd when you’re lost in this crazy worldYou got somewhere to go and get foundThank God for hometownsYeah
[Bridge:]I always find another piece of meWalking down these old familiar streets
[Chorus:]Thank God for hometownsAnd all the love that makes them go roundThank God for the county lines that welcome you back inWhen you were dying to get outThank God for Church pewsAnd all the faces that won’t forget youAnd when you’re lost in this crazy worldYou got somewhere to go and get foundThank God for hometownsThank God for hometowns
