I wish I'd never come back home

It don't feel right since I've been grown

I can't find any of my old friends hanging around

Won't nothing bring you down like your hometown

I spent some time in New Orleans

I had to live on rice and beans

I hitched through Texas when the sun was beating down

Won't nothing bring you down like your hometown

Ain't that what they always say?

My heart lies in broken pieces

Scattered along the way

So don't think about me when I'm gone

                        D     A D A D7
I don't mind traveling alone

You are the sweetest little thing that I ever found

Won't nothing bring you down like your hometown

Sugar, won't nothing bring you down like your hometown
