Karaoké My Hometown Charlie Robison

Well I, I had a buddy back in eighty-one

And we made ourselves a pact

We were headin' for the new pipeline

We were never comin' back

Well we worked eighty hours makin' time and a half but La Grange was too damn hot

We drove back home at the end of that week and we spent it all on pot

So I'll see you in Houston if I ever get out that way

I'll see you in Dallas but I won't have long to stay

If you're ever out west son and you're feelin' like slowin' down

I'll see you around

Around my hometown

Well I played ball every single fall

I could run just like the wind

Went to college like they asked me too but they didn't ask my friends

Don't think I seen a single classroom but I drank a lot of beer

My buddies still love to listen to me when

I talk about that year

So I'll see you in Houston if I ever get out that way

I'll see you in Dallas but I won't have long to stay

If you're ever out west son and you're feelin' like slowin' down

I'll see you around

Around my hometown

Now I got myself a little band and we're pretty good I guess

But I never learned how to wear my hair and I never learned how to dress

So I'm leavin' for the last time honey

I'm never more to roam

Gonna pack my bags a little heavy this time

Gonna head my ass back home

So I'll see you in Nashville if I ever get out that way

I'll see you in Austin but I won't have long to stay

If you're ever out west son and you're feelin' like slowin' down

I'll see you around

Around my hometown

I'll see you around

Around my hometown
