My Home Town - B. J. Thomas

Done a lot things I’m sorry

For things I wouldn’t do anymore

But my biggest mistake of all

Was leaving my home town

Since then my foolish thoughts have died

Grass isn’t really greener on the other side

I’m goin' home

Goin' to that city where people care about you

They won’t forget you’re there

There’s a cloud of love

And it’s hovering over my hometown

Pretty girls see a lonely you

And in a little while you’re walkin' two by two

I’m goin' home

Going to my home town

Yeah, my home town

Back to my home town

Oh, my home town

I’m goin' home

Goin' to that pretty girl who once was mine

Oh, it’s been a long long time

And there’s a sign saying ten more miles to my hometown

Looking through the misty dawn

I see the city lights and they’re waving me on

To my home, to the city I love

That’s my home town, oh, my home town

To the home I love, that’s my home town

To the city I love, yeah, my home town

To the place I love, oh, my home town
