Hometown Blues
|
(Steve Earle) [1977]
|
I wish I'd never come back home
|
It don't feel right since I've been grown
|
I can't find any of my old friends hangin' 'round
|
Won't nothin' bring you down like your hometown
|
I spent some time in New Orleans
|
I had to live on rice and beans
|
I hitched through Texas when the sun was beatin' down
|
Won't nothin' bring you down like your hometown
|
|
CHORUS
|
Home is where the heart is
|
Ain't that what they always say
|
My heart lies in broken pieces
|
Scattered along the way
|
|
So don't think about me when I'm gone
|
I don't mind travelin' alone
|
You are the sweetest little thing I ever found
|
Won't nothin' bring you down like your hometown
|
