God's Hometown
She spent her days
Never breaking her gaze on his face
She knew every line
She whispered to him
But only to make him give chase
It worked every time
He was the one when it came
To the son that they saw
And he showed 'em how
They called him Earnest
His wife called her mother-in-law
Asked her, "What now?"
Living in God's hometown
I'm standing here in my wedding gown
Living in God's hometown
So with everyone watching
She stole all the clocks from the walls
And charged for the time
But what could she do
She's just telling the truth after all
And that's not a crime
When Earnest comes knocking
She jumps in the closet
And stays just outta sight
And it's there she confesses
Surrounded by dresses
That make her feel alright about
Living in God's hometown
I'm standing here in my wedding gown
Living in God's hometown
Both of them guilty
Of the same crime, same crime
Only believing it would save them, oh
Living in God's hometown
Standing here in my wedding gown
Living in God's hometown
Never breaking her gaze on his face
She knew every line
She whispered to him
But only to make him give chase
It worked every time
He was the one when it came
To the son that they saw
And he showed 'em how
They called him Earnest
His wife called her mother-in-law
Asked her, "What now?"
Living in God's hometown
I'm standing here in my wedding gown
Living in God's hometown
So with everyone watching
She stole all the clocks from the walls
And charged for the time
But what could she do
She's just telling the truth after all
And that's not a crime
When Earnest comes knocking
She jumps in the closet
And stays just outta sight
And it's there she confesses
Surrounded by dresses
That make her feel alright about
Living in God's hometown
I'm standing here in my wedding gown
Living in God's hometown
Both of them guilty
Of the same crime, same crime
Only believing it would save them, oh
Living in God's hometown
Standing here in my wedding gown
Living in God's hometown
