Hometown Lyrics & Tabs by Elliott Murphy
Hometown
guitar chords lyrics
I saw your mother downtown yesterday
She didn't know me and her hair was gray
She told me all her kids had run away
They called at Christmas time but really what's left to say
And now the neighbors they don't talk no more
And late at night she listens to the wind under the door
And the cracks in the floor
Oh guess who I ran into in the waiting room
You know they use to say that kid was born with a silver spoon
He told me that he left his home much too soon
Cause no one ever told him about the power of a real full moon
And than he stopped and just closed his eyes
And whispered please could someone help him get outside
And don't tell me you don't hear that hometown calling you
Cause you know what baby your still doing all the same things
You use to do
Wo wo darling you never use to wait till tomorrow
And now you can't wait at all
Hey what's the news in the fashion world
Is it long or short
Is it straight or curled
Does it pull all my last years in a different world
Does it tell your mother
How long ago she was a girl
And even churchmen are wearing stripes
And all the hometown girls are getting in much too late tonight
I guess they gave up the fight
