Heaven's Like a Hometown

I hope they got a Texaco

With the coldest ice-cold beer

I hope they got Friday nights

The home team's undefeated every year

I hope they got a honey hole

Where the fish always bite

It says stay a while

On that welcome sign

It's all porch swing swinging kinda weather

It's all God's country stretching out forever

I hope heaven's like a hometown

You can roll 'round

And all the streets of gold

Got a little bit of dirt on 'em

I hope it's just a quick ten to my momma's house

Every country mile's got a little white church on 'em

I ain't ready to go

But when he calls me home

To that map dot up in the clouds

I hope heaven's like a hometown

I hope heaven's like a hometown

Hometown, yeah

If they got a stoplight

I hope it flashes yellow after ten o'clock

If you want to go fifty in a thirty-five

You ain't ever got to worry about the cops

And everybody knows everybody

Nobody's a stranger

Every backyard's forty acres

I hope heaven's like a hometown

You can roll 'round

And all the streets of gold

Got a little bit of dirt on 'em

I hope it's just a quick ten to my momma's house

Every country mile's got a little white church on 'em

I ain't ready to go

But when he calls me home

To that map dot up in the clouds

I hope heaven's like a hometown

I hope heaven's like a hometown

Hometown, yeah

The kind that makes you wanna put some roots down

The kind you never wanna get out

I hope heaven's like a hometown

You can roll 'round

And all the streets of gold

Got a little bit of dirt on 'em

I hope it's just a quick ten to my momma's house

And every country mile's got a little white church on 'em

I ain't ready to go

But when he calls me home

To that map dot up in the clouds

I hope heaven's like a hometown

I hope heaven's like a hometown

Hometown, yeah
