How'd I end up here where I don't belong? 
 Like a steel guitar in a disco song 
 I've been goin' nowhere since I've been gone 
 How'd I end up here where I don't belong? 
    I wanna be home in my own hometown 
 Yeah, back where my roots ran wild 
 And the barefoot stompin' ground 
 Yeah, I wanna wake up to some of that cookin' 
 Know my way around without lookin' 
 Home in my own hometown 
 I'm always gonna be hometown 
 I'm always gonna be hometown   
 Now these black dirt boots just don't fit in 
 Yeah, the air is thick and they smile too thin 
 There ain't no wildflowers blowin' here in the wind 
 These black dirt boots just don't fit in   
 I wanna be home in my own hometown 
 Yeah, back where my roots ran wild 
 And the barefoot stompin' ground 
 Yeah, I wanna wake up to some of that cookin' 
 Know my way around without lookin' 
 Home in my own hometown 
 I'm always gonna be hometown 
 I'm always gonna be hometown   
 Yeah, there's a graveyard there where my granddaddy is 
 And a speed of life that I sure do miss 
 And that high school crush that I never did kiss   
 I wanna be home in my own hometown 
 I wanna be home in my own hometown 
 Yeah, back where my roots ran wild 
 And the barefoot stompin' ground 
 Yeah, I wanna wake up to some of that cookin' 
 Know my way around without lookin' 
 Home in my own hometown 
 I'm always gonna be hometown 
 I'm always gonna be hometown 
 I'm always gonna be hometown
