Old Hometown Lyrics

Ain't been alone in a while
I took a walk downtown
Look in the windows, watching the wind blow
The people around
Go for a drive in the night
Out in the blinking lights
There in the back of our old Pontiac
Just as free as you like

And it's always the same old places crumbling down
And it's always the same old faces walkin' around
When you stay in your hometown, your old hometown

My baby rolled on the floor
My baby rolled out the door
One sunny day, he'll come back and say
I don't live here anymore
There ain't a price you can pay
When there ain't a reason to stay
My friend down thе block, you know, we never talk
I guеss he wants it that way

And it's always the same old places crumbling down
When you stay in your hometown, your old hometown
And it's always the same old faces walkin' around
When you stay in your hometown
