Girls In My Hometown

Girls In My Hometown
When I turn on the news, when I drive by a church
When I flip through a country station
When I see cool kids in the parkin' lot, livin' up their reputation
When I'm three drinks and some guy's hittin' on a blonde, three stores down
When the talk is cheap, I cannot think about the girls in my hometown

Are they getting married? Are they getting jaded?
When they think seventeen, do they think of me
And wonder if I made it?
Are they really happy? Are they makin' daddy proud?
What makes 'em cry? What gets 'em high?
I think about the girls in my hometown
When I see a denim jacket, when I hear a kid say dirty words
When my faith's runnin' low and me and God ain't on the best of terms
When I'm out with someone and we lose our buzz and the conversation dies out
I go home by myself and I cannot think about the girls in my hometown
Are they getting married? Are they getting jaded?
When they think seventeen, do they think of me
And wonder if I made it?
Are they really happy? Are they makin' daddy proud?
What makes 'em cry? What gets 'em high?
I think about the girls in my hometown
[Instrumental Break]
When I hear the song "Strawberrry Wine"
I think about, all of the fences, all painted white
I think about, falling in love, a million life
I think about the girls in my hometown

Are they getting married? Are they getting jaded?
In my bright in their mind
like it's summertime, or just a little faded
Are they really happy? Are they makin' daddy proud?
In the back of my mind, did they get it right?
I think about the girls in my hometown
What makes 'em cry? What gets 'em high?
I think about the girls in my hometown
Hmm, hmm-hmm
