Hometown Blues

I remember the porous wing clickin' in the breeze

Grandma's to the garden where the honeybees freeze

Daddy's old guitar resonatin' with the night

We'd sing the hometown blues by the porch of life

Corn fields stretchin', golden as the sun

Dignified Sunday, laughin' just for fun

Mama's voice callin' from the kitchen door

Smell of apple pie, bringin' us back for more

Oh, the hometown blues, they never leave my heart

Every strum from that guitar takes me back to the start

My mama go willin' so deep in the night

In our little hometown, everything felt right

Bonfire glow, stories of old

Feet tappin' softly in rhythms so bold

Stars overhead, whisperin' our dreams

Life was simpler than it seemed

Old man Johnson at the general store

Knew every name and what they came in for

Sadie at the diner, always had a smile

Last little moments, they go the extra mile

Oh, the hometown blues, they never leave my heart

Every strum from that guitar takes me back to the start

My mama go willin' so deep in the night

In our little hometown, everything felt right

Oh, the hometown blues, they never leave my heart

Every strum from that guitar takes me back to the start

My mama go willin' so deep in the night

In our little hometown, everything felt right
