Town Born Child
Well I'm a town born child
I've got braces on my name
And you can bet when I show up
I bring all my ghosts with me
Well I'm a town born son
And when the morning comes
I will wash off the dust of the
Dreams that I never got done
Now I'm keeping an eye out for you
'Cause you come from where I want to go to
You got the melodies and music in your ear
So sing this town born child away from here
Well I'm a town born child
And all my teachers knew my brothers
And when I stepped into a classroom
I was just like the others
I'm a town born child
But my mind's been wondering out for a while
And I never pushed fast or forward
But I always could hold my tongue and force a smile
On my own, driving home
I dream of summer in the winter
And when spring rolls on I skip my stones
But never watch when they go under and down
I've got braces on my name
And you can bet when I show up
I bring all my ghosts with me
Well I'm a town born son
And when the morning comes
I will wash off the dust of the
Dreams that I never got done
Now I'm keeping an eye out for you
'Cause you come from where I want to go to
You got the melodies and music in your ear
So sing this town born child away from here
Well I'm a town born child
And all my teachers knew my brothers
And when I stepped into a classroom
I was just like the others
I'm a town born child
But my mind's been wondering out for a while
And I never pushed fast or forward
But I always could hold my tongue and force a smile
On my own, driving home
I dream of summer in the winter
And when spring rolls on I skip my stones
But never watch when they go under and down
