Right Here in My Hometown

RIGHT HERE IN OUR HOMETOWN 1) I'm gonna sing of hometown, and of family and friends It seems so many live life as a means to an end But let me tell you of the treasure I've found And it's right here, in my hometown. 2) Singing my songs from a small makeshift stage Familiar faces pressed on the page Of a journal with stories from the world all around But my favorites are from my hometown So I lift my voice to sing this refrain I'll sing it out loud again and again The greatest treasures to ever be found Are from right here, in my hometown. 3) From the fields and woods where as kids we did play To the dances as teens at the YMCA The places we courted, some no longer around They were right here, in my hometown BRIDGE: Parades for Halloween and Memorial Day Concerts in the park where the Marching Band played Each year a reunion from some high school class To family and friends, I raise my glass So I lift my voice to sing this refrain I'll sing it out loud again and again The greatest treasures to ever be found Are from right here, in my hometown. 4) Can't sing of hometown, without thinking of friends Who once danced beside me but their journey did end Yet the song that they danced to now plays in my heart Of my life they are always a part. So let's lift our voices to sing this refrain Let's sing it out loud again and again The greatest treasures to ever be found Are from right here, in our hometown. TAG: We lift our voice; raise a glass To our hometown; friends that last The greatest treasures ever found Here, in our hometown. Here, in our hometown.
