My Hometown

They always say the same thing How many miles to Dallas And what do you do around here They get their own pumping gas And just like that They drive off and disappear They often forget about this little place By the time they hit the interstate But that's okay 'Cause I get to live where the air is so clear There's green fields and miles of blue sky here Just take a walk and look around You'll see why I never wanna get out Of my hometown There was a time when My wheels got restless And I just had to know If luck was any better With these lots of concrete And the street line's closed But to me Nothing beats the stars And the sounds of the cows In the nod bran barn In my backyard, yo I get to live where the air is so clear There's green fields and miles of blue sky here Just take a walk and look around You'll see why I never wanna get out Of my hometown It's hard to see it just driving by 'Cause there's more to this place Than a name on a welcome sign Oh, I get to live where the air is so clear There's green fields and miles of blue sky here Just take a walk and look around You'll see why I never wanna get out Of my hometown They always say the same thing How many miles to Dallas And what do you do around here
