Текст песни: Have You Heard About The Old Hometown + перевод

I remember, oh so well

A little mom and pops and motel

Sunday mornings they used to sell

Breakfast at half price

On that corner was a church of god

That there was an old car wash

Now they’re just empty parking lots

Where you best not go at night

Started twenty years ago

Well, the times got tight

And the wheels turned slow

Started letting all the workers go

Said they couldn’t keep the lights on

Things got bad and then got worse

You know it’s hard to earn a dollar

When there ain’t no work

People got hungry and my people hurt

Back where I call home

And they said you heard about the old hometown?

Have you heard about the old hometown?

Closing the doors and shutting them down

Have you heard about the old hometown?

My family went to work in the field

Made their liquor from a moonshine steel

Ate whatever they could kill

Yeah, somehow they carried on

People like me just moved away

And said I’ll make my way back someday

But my folks they all still say

Boy you best stay gone, stay gone

And they said you heard about the old hometown?

Have you heard about the old hometown?

Closing the doors and shutting them down

Have you heard about the old hometown?

Living on faith and love, living on faith and love

Scratching by, no they won’t give up

Living on faith and love

Yeah, you wouldn’t believe it if you saw it now

And have you heard about the old hometown?

I remember, oh so well

A little mom and pops and motel

Sunday mornings they used to sell

Breakfast at half price

Yeah, you wouldn’t believe it if you saw it now

Have you heard about the old hometown?

Have you heard about the old hometown?

Have you heard about the old hometown?
