Have to Be My Hometown
Said we would never change, such a shame, something did
I miss the Chevrolet glory days
Back when it didn't hurt to
Drive across that county line
Can't remember this place before you were mine
If you would've just taken my heart
If you would've just wasted my time
When you took my favorite T-shirt, I didn't mind
But you even ruined the stars
Look up and I see your eyes
Could've drawn a line in the dirt
The night that you said goodbye
There's places I don't go
Back roads I can't roll down
Out of everything you stole
Why'd it have to be my hometown?
You left the memories on the streets I was raised
I swear, in every car, every bar I see your face
Honestly, what makes it worse is you don't care at all
This small town has gotten way too small
If you would've just taken my heart
If you would've just wasted my time
When you took my favorite T-shirt, I didn't mind
But you even ruined the stars
Look up and I see your eyes
Could've drawn a line in the dirt
The night that you said goodbye
There's places I don't go
Back roads I can't roll down
Out of everything you stole
Why'd it have to be my hometown?
I'll take our names off the tree by the tracks
But you've taken something I'll never get back
If you would've just taken my heart
If you would've just wasted my time
When you took my favorite T-shirt, I didn't mind
But you even ruined the stars
Look up and I see your eyes
Could've drawn a line in the dirt
The night that you said goodbye
There's places I don't go
Back roads I can't roll down
Out of everything you stole
Why'd it have to be my hometown?
Why'd it have to be my hometown?
Why'd it have to be my hometown?
I miss the Chevrolet glory days
Back when it didn't hurt to
Drive across that county line
Can't remember this place before you were mine
If you would've just taken my heart
If you would've just wasted my time
When you took my favorite T-shirt, I didn't mind
But you even ruined the stars
Look up and I see your eyes
Could've drawn a line in the dirt
The night that you said goodbye
There's places I don't go
Back roads I can't roll down
Out of everything you stole
Why'd it have to be my hometown?
You left the memories on the streets I was raised
I swear, in every car, every bar I see your face
Honestly, what makes it worse is you don't care at all
This small town has gotten way too small
If you would've just taken my heart
If you would've just wasted my time
When you took my favorite T-shirt, I didn't mind
But you even ruined the stars
Look up and I see your eyes
Could've drawn a line in the dirt
The night that you said goodbye
There's places I don't go
Back roads I can't roll down
Out of everything you stole
Why'd it have to be my hometown?
I'll take our names off the tree by the tracks
But you've taken something I'll never get back
If you would've just taken my heart
If you would've just wasted my time
When you took my favorite T-shirt, I didn't mind
But you even ruined the stars
Look up and I see your eyes
Could've drawn a line in the dirt
The night that you said goodbye
There's places I don't go
Back roads I can't roll down
Out of everything you stole
Why'd it have to be my hometown?
Why'd it have to be my hometown?
Why'd it have to be my hometown?
