[00:17.51]I was eight years old and running with a dime in my hand
[00:24.63]Into the bus stop to pick up a paper for my old man
[00:32.74]I'd sit on his lap in that big old Buick and steer as we drove through town
[00:39.85]He'd tousle my hair and say son take a good look around this is your hometown
[00:50.65]This is your hometown
[00:57.82]This is your hometown
[01:01.75]This is your hometown
[01:10.86]In '65 tension was running high at my high school
[01:16.36]There was a lot of fights between the black and white
[01:21.72]There was nothing you could do
[01:24.65]Two cars at a light on a Saturday night in the back seat there was a gun
[01:34.00]Words were passed in a shotgun blast
[01:37.58]Troubled times had come to my hometown
[01:47.32]My hometown
[01:49.13]My hometown
[01:55.20]My hometown
[02:03.50]Now Main Street's whitewashed windows and vacant stores
[02:08.30]Seems like there ain't nobody wants to come down here no more
[02:18.96]They're closing down the textile mill across the railroad tracks
[02:27.58]Foreman says these jobs are going boys and they ain't coming back to your hometown
[02:39.53]Your hometown
[02:44.34]Your hometown
[02:48.14]Your hometown
[02:56.57]Last night me and Kate we laid in bed
[02:59.93]Talking about getting out
[03:02.06]Packing up our bags maybe heading south
[03:12.73]I'm thirty-five we got a boy of our own now
[03:20.09]Last night I sat him up behind the wheel and said son take a good look around
[03:27.89]This is your hometown
