Hometown

Sittin' on a train bridge

Waitin' on sundown

River winds

Settin' low on that old town

And nothin' else to do but think

And toss a stone and watch it sink

Oh I hope heaven's a lot like my hometown

Walkin' down the old track

Balancin' on the rail

A Sunday breeze

Carryin' church bells

Sun like a kaleidoscope

Through the leaves of a scarlet oak

Lord I hope heaven's a lot like my hometown

Hallelujah

Let my spirit lift to the sky

And tell I'm home again

In the sweet by and by

By and by

Well I've heard the preacher talkin' bout streets of gold

But I'll be fine forever

Walkin' these dirt roads

The homeplace ain't much to see

But it's magic enough for me

Lord I hope heaven's a lot like my hometown

Hey Lord I hope heaven's a lot like my hometown

Yeah
