Homegrown
Please Listen To What I Say,
Can You Hear Me?
Please Heere Me Now,
Take My Hand, You Will See,
What I Do, Is For You And Me.
My Family, Oh My Friends.
Been Raised In This Small Town,
Yeah, Yeah, It's My Kind Of Place.
Do You See My Face?
I've Been Here, East 2 West, North 2 South,
But I'm Back Again, Yeah, In My Hometown
Where I Was Raised, Where You See Your Friends You Haven't Seen.
In A Long Time, Oh Yet I Find, No Matter What, Will You See Me Walking Around,
Would You Wave?, As I Walk By, Or Do Sing And Wonder Why? My Babies, Did And Do You Miss Me? Because I've Moved On. Came Back Here, 2 Help You Get Along. Take Me Now For What I Am, Wait For Me, In This Promised Land. Would You Still Miss Me? Yeah, Back In A Small Town, You'll See Me Walking Around. In My Cowboy Hat Just Going By. Will You Wave? Or Just Say Hi, Or Will You Beep Your Horn? Remember My Face? All Those Years Ago, I Love You, I Love You Too, I Love You All Still. Jesus Christ
