New Hometown

Been thinking a lot about Boston
Like the band and the weather ain't hot.
Then again there's Colorado
They got the mountains and they legalized pot
Somewhere out in Oaklahoma
Yeah I could get lost out there
Palm Springs, New Orleans
Hell, I dont care
I got to get a new hometown
One that doesn't bring me down
Somewhere where I won't see you
Everytime I turn around
I used to think I'd never leave
But that was when you still loved me
But you broke my heart and drug it around
My stomping ground
So now I need a new hometown
My great grandaddy Charlie moved here in 24
Made it through the Great Depression
And opened up a hardware store.
My roots run down these streets
Four generations deep
But thanks to a blue eyed girl
Who moved here from Tennessee
I got to get a new hometown
One that doesn't bring me down
Somewhere where I wont see you
Everytime I turn around
I used to think I'd never leave
That was when you still loved me
But you broke my heart and drug it around
My stomping ground
So now I need a new hometown
Somewhere I've never been
Somewhere you'd never go
Somewhere I could turn you into a girl I used to know.
Now i need a new hometown
I got to get a new hometown
One that doesn't bring me down
Somewhere where I wont see you
Everytime I turn around
I used to think I'd never leave
That was when you still loved me
But you broke my heart and drug it around
My stomping ground
So now I need a new hometown
I got to get a new hometown
