Yesterday I got a call, someone I didn't know at all had passed away.
Mama said yeah you know him you went to school with both his kids,
they lived out on Prescott Lane.
She said you should've seen the lines,
Mrs. Johnson said to tell you hi.
Thank God for hometowns and all the love that makes 'em go around.
Thank God for the county lines and welcome you back ins
when you were dying to get out.
Thank God for church pews and all the faces that won't forget you.
Cause when you're lost out in this crazy world,
you got somewhere to go and get found,
Thank God for hometowns.
Yeahh.
Last June my cousin tied the knot
Wasn't sure if i'd go or not, but I'm sure glad I did.
It was a pretty good haul but worth the drive
I could feel myself coming back to life the closer that I get
First red light i rolled the windows down, breathe it in and took a look around
Thank God for hometowns
First kisses and touchdowns
Thank God for the county lines and welcome you back ins
when you were dying to get out.
Thank God for church pews
And all the faces that won't forget you.
And when you're lost out there in this crazy world,
you got somewhere to go and get found.
Thank God for hometowns
I've always found another piece of me
walking dow these old familiar streets,
Thank God for hometowns
and all the love that makes 'em go around
Thank God for the county lines and welcome you back ins
when you were dying to get out.
Thank God for church pews
and all the faces that won't forget you.
And when you're lost out in this crazy world
you, you got somewhere to go and get found.
Thank God for hometowns
yeahh
Thank God for hometowns
