Asylum Street Spankers - Hometown Boy lyrics

Just across the highway there's the Army store And everytime I see it, I remember what it's for My brother signed up so he could make his stink They sent him to Iraq, it's just a year and a day In the showdown, he was shot from the rear They make those bullets sixteen miles from here. All he ever wanted was his own piece of ground And now it's 3 feet wide, six feet down All he ever wanted was his own piece of ground And I ain't ever gonna leave my hometown Church window caught in the corner of my eye Jacob's ladder shining out of the sky Well, I'm dreaming of Suzy with the yellow hair When I was small she used to live around here. River Valley Baptist on a windy(?) road I kissed her in the choir when she was twelve years Old. Suzy went to school but I just sort of hung around She came back and burned the damn church down. Suzy went to school but I just sort of hung around And I ain't ever gonna leave my hometown Well, there's an Amoco pipeline, it cuts through the Town Feed the thirsted mosquitoes, s** the oil from the Ground I watch the sun go down through a hole in the pine Then they left when they laid the power line Well, that's a V8 boy, you can tell by the sound But I ain't ever gonna leave my hometown Sunday go to meeting about half past ten I put on my best again Got a half tank of gas A beer in a can We'll meet in back of Johnson's Land And we'll try to get home by breakfast time Put the whites in the wash get 'em out on the line Before the stain sets, y'know the red turns to brown. The rifle's in the rack before I hit town Before the stain sets, y'know the red turns to brown. And I ain't ever gonna leave my hometown Well, there's an Amoco pipeline, it cuts through the Town Feed the thirsted mosquitoes, s** the blood from the Ground I watch the sun go down through a hole in the pine Then they left when they laid the power line Well, that's a twelve-gauge full choke, you tell by the Sound But I ain't ever gonna leave my hometown
