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 hangin' 'round 
Won't nothin' 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 beatin' down 
Won't nothin' bring you down like your hometown 

Home is where the heart is 
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 
I don't mind travelin' alone 
You are the sweetest little thing that I ever found 
But won't nothin' bring you down like your hometown
Alright Wilson pick it

Yeh home is where the heart is 
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 
I don't mind travelin' alone 
Hey you are the sweetest little thing that I ever found 
But won't nothin' bring you down like your hometown 
Ah sugar, won't nothin' bring you down like your hometown
