Verse
It was a cloud of dust behind a ****** truck
Put my finger up by the window
It was anywhere but around here
Didn’t care wherever that plan blow
Was a typical teenage kid
A know it all but you couldn’t tell ****
Ain’t it crazy how things changed
‘Cuz I just turn back on Maine
That stage and flax still under old glory down accord house
Can’t believe I used to hate this town
Chorus
‘Cuz now when I leave it I can’t wait to come back
I get that seventeen feeling when I cross the railroad track
Always wishin’ I was here no matter where I’m at
It’s like that hometown ground keeps on talkin’ me back
To where I grew up and where they gon’ lay me down
Can’t believe I used to hate this town
Verse
Just passed by where I quit that job
And told my boss where he’d go
And there’s the house she kicked me out
‘Cuz I couldn’t tell that bar below
Thought I’d still beg for this place
I was gonna show ’em all one day
Kinda’ fling lookin’ back now
Can’t believe I used to hate this town
Chorus
‘Cuz now when I leave it I can’t wait to come back
I get that seventeen feeling when I cross the railroad track
Always wishin’ I was here no matter where I’m at
It’s like that hometown ground keeps on talkin’ me back
To where I grew up and where they gon’ lay me down
Can’t believe I used to hate this town
Bridge
I miss those bonfire nights
Playin’ a music too loud
I miss those Sunday’s at mom’s place
My dad don’t catch
Gassin’ up the truck just to ride around
Chorus
‘Cuz now when I leave it I can’t wait to come back
I get that seventeen feeling when I cross the railroad track
Always wishin’ I was here no matter where I’m at
It’s like that hometown ground keeps on talkin’ me back
To where I grew up and where they gon’ lay me down
I guess what goes around really does come back around
Can’t believe I used to hate this town
