Lyrics

My Hometown
© Nikole Potulsky


I'm driving on a bridge between Illinois and Missouri
Looking at the stars to see how I've grown
Thinking about Texas should I move to New Orleans
Truth is I can't wait to get home

CHORUS
Skipping rocks on the river
Counting falling stars
Kids chasing around lighting bugs
Stuffing them in jars

Jam session on Sunday
Ya'll should come on down
There's nothing like passing life
Here in my hometown

VERSE 2
No I wasn't born here and I can't say that I'm raised
But I've got a pretty big mouth, o everybody knows my name
I can always find a cowboy to sing about lost dreams
There's a bartender south of town who's got a big old crush on me

CHORUS
Skipping rocks on the river
Counting falling stars
Kids chasing around lighting bugs
Stuffing them in jars

Jam session on Sunday
Ya'll should come on down
There's nothing like passing life
Here in my hometown

VERSE 3
It seems I've been looking for what was here all along
New friends and faces, new stories to put in songs

Sometimes I dream about the big city lights
But nothing shines like Missouri sky at night

CHORUS
Skipping rocks on the river
Counting falling stars
Kids chasing around lighting bugs
Stuffing them in jars

Jam session on Sunday
Ya'll should come on down
There's nothing like passing life
Here in my hometown

CHORUS
Skipping rocks on the river
Counting falling stars
Kids chasing around lighting bugs
Stuffing them in jars

Jam session on Sunday
Ya'll should come on down
There's nothing like passing life
Here in my hometown
