Hometown Blues

[Verse]

I wish I'd never come back home

It don't feel right since I've been grown

I can't find any of my old friends hanging around

Won't nothing bring you down like your hometown

[Verse]

I spent some time in New Orleans

I had to live on rice and beans

I hitched through Texas when the sun was beating down

Won't nothing bring you down like your hometown

[Chorus]

Home is where the heart is

Ain't that what they always say?

My heart lies in broken pieces

Scattered along the way

[Verse]

So don't think about me when I'm gone

I don't mind traveling alone

You are the sweetest little thing that I ever found

Won't nothing bring you down like your hometown

[Chorus]

Home is where the heart is

Ain't that what they always say?

My heart lies in broken pieces

Scattered along the way

[Verse]

So don't think about me when I'm gone

I don't mind traveling alone

You are the sweetest little thing that I ever found

Won't nothing bring you down like your hometown

Sugar, won't nothing bring you down like your hometown
