Hometown

Hometown - Arthur Tracy

Home town

Where the garden trees are shady

Where Edie was a lady

I'm going back to see

Those corny country cousins of mine

I can see a bunch of smalltown 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've known some 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'd love to walk on

Those corny country cousins of mine

Home town

I'll get a welcome

From those corny country cousins of mine

There's an old schoolhouse door

We used to tumble through at four

And small candy store

Where I could go a dozen lollipops

And shout for more

Home town

Where the garden trees are shady

Where Edie was a lady

I'm going back to see

Those corny country cousins of mine
