[Verse 1]
How'd I end up here where I don't belong?
Like a steel guitar in a disco song
I been goin' nowhere since I've been gone
How'd I end up here where I don't belong?

[Chorus]
I wanna be home in my own hometown
Yeah, back where my roots ran wild in my 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 home-town, yeah
I'm always gonna be home-town, yeah

[Verse 2]
These black dirt boots just don't fit in
Where the air is thick and they smile too thin
Ain't no wildflowers blowin' here in the wind
And these black dirt boots just don't fit in

[Chorus]
I wanna be home in my own hometown
Yeah, back where my roots ran wild in my 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 home-town, yeah
I'm always gonna be home-town, yeah

[Bridge]
There's a graveyard there where my granddad 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

[Chorus]
I wanna be home in my own hometown
Yeah, back where my roots ran wild in my 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 home-town, yeah
I'm always gonna be home-town, yeah

[Outro]
I'm always gonna be home-town, yeah
I'm always gonna be home-town
