[Verse] Backroads twist, veins of the earth Mud on my boots, I was bred by this dirt Pickup rattles, rusted but it runs Small town stars, bigger than the sun [Chorus] Left my heart in my hometown, it’s stuck there still In the diner on Main, on the edge of that hill It’s in the gravel lot where we’d burn them tires Left my heart in my hometown, it’s caught in the wires [Verse 2] Cornfield whispers, ghosts in the breeze Barnyard sermons, truth on its knees Church bell echoes, calling me home But the road keeps pulling, now I’m out here alone [Prechorus] Heart’s like a fence post, splintered and bare Roots dug deep, but I’m gasping for air [Chorus] Left my heart in my hometown, can’t pry it free It’s in the drawl of the voices, calling to me It’s in the cracked front porch, and the neon signs Left my heart in my hometown, now I’m losing my mind [Bridge] I’ve been chasing something, don’t know what City lights shining, but the feeling’s a cut I’m a stray dog wandering, tail in the dust Hometown love, it’s a bond I can trust
