Hometown

Home Town - Flanagan & Allen/Sidney Black and His Orchestra

Written by：Jimmy Kennedy/Michael Carr

I can see a bunch of small town hicks

Squatting round the local Flora whittling sticks

In my hometown why did I ever roam town

I must be crazy

Though the city girls are not so slow

Take me to the corn fed girls I used to know

I'm pinin' night and day

For that old time new mown hay

Home town

Want to wander round your backstreets

See your tumbledown old shack streets

I'm going back to see those corny country cousins of mine

Home town

Where they get up in the morning

And are all so busy yawning

I'll get her welcome from

Those corny country cousins of mine

I see an old school house door

We used to tumble through at four

There's a small candy store

Where I could go a dozen lollipops

And shout for more

Home town

Where the garden trees are shady

That's where Edie was a lady

I'm going back to see

Those corny country cousins of mine

I see an old school house door

We used to tumble through at four

There's a small candy store

Where I could go a dozen lollipops

And shout for more

Home town

Where the garden trees are shady

That's where Edie was a lady

I'm going back to see

Those corny country cousins of mine
