I just looked in the mirror and for the first time in my life, Wayne Newton looks cooler than me. I'll stick around for therapy from you nice people. K?!!!
Well here's my life story: Some true, most isn'tMy Hometown
Written and performed by: Charlie RobisonCD: Life of the Party
Transcribed by: Eric Schuessler
Well, I had a buddy back in '81 and we made ourselves a pact
We were headin' for the new pipeline and we wern't never coming back
We worked 80 hours making time and a half but La Grange was too damn hot
So we drove back home here at the end of the week and we spent it all on potChorus:
So I'll see you in Houston if I ever get out that way
I'll see you in Dallas, but I won't have long to stay
If you're ever out west son, and you're feelin' like slowin' down
I'll see you around, 'round my hometownWell, I played ball every single fall, I could run like the wind
I went to college like they asked me too, but they didn't ask my friends
I don't remember a single classroom but I drank alot of beer
My buddies still love to listen to me when I talk about that yearChorus
Break (play verse)
Now I got myself a little band and we're pretty good I guess
But I never learned how to wear my hair and I never learned how to dress
So I'm leavin' for the last time honey, I'm no more to roam
Gunna pack my bags a little heavy this time, gunna head my ass back homeAlt. Chorus:
So I'll see you in Nashville if I ever get out that way
I'll see you in Austin but I won't have long to stay
If you're ever out west son, and you're feelin' like slowin' down
I'll see you around, 'round my hometown
I'll see you around, 'round my hometown
