Yesterday I got a call
|
Someone I didn¡¯t know at all passed away
|
Mama said yeah you know him
|
You went to school with both his kids
|
They lived out on Prescott lane
|
She said you should¡¯ve seen the line
|
Mrs. Johnson said to tell you hi
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Thank God for hometowns
|
And all the love that makes you go round
|
Thank God for the country lines that welcome you back in
|
When you were dying to get out
|
Thank God for Church pews
|
And all the faces that won¡¯t forget you
|
Cause when you¡¯re lost in this crazy world
|
You got somewhere to go and get found
|
Thank God for hometowns
|
Yeah
|
|
Last June my cousin tied the knot,
|
Didn¡¯t know if I¡¯d go or not
|
But I¡¯m sure glad I did
|
It was a pretty good haul but worth the drive
|
I could feel myself come back to life
|
The closer that I¡¯d get
|
First red light I rollded the windows down
|
Breathed it in and took a look around
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Thank God for hometowns
|
First kisses and touchdowns
|
Thank God for the county lines that welcome you back in
|
When you were dying to get out
|
Thank God for Church pews
|
And all the faces that won¡¯t forget you
|
And when you¡¯re lost in this crazy world
|
You got somewhere to go and get found
|
Thank God for hometowns
|
Yeah
|
|
[Bridge]
|
I always find another piece of me
|
Walking down these old familiar streets
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Thank God for hometowns
|
And all the love that makes them go round
|
Thank God for the county lines that welcome you back in
|
When you were dying to get out
|
Thank God for Church pews
|
And all the faces that won¡¯t forget you
|
And when you¡¯re lost in this crazy world
|
You got somewhere to go and get found
|
Thank God for hometowns
|
Thank God for hometowns
|
