Every time that I'm drivin' down I-85
Doesn't hit me 'til that exit sign
Better stop at the shop to see Ron and say hi
It's a little outta the way
But I miss those faces, places 'round my
Growin' up, stompin' grounds
There's a whole lotta hometowns
Whole lotta Main Streets
Whole lotta parkin' lots packed for the home team
Whole lotta post-game parties
And their pocket fifths tipped to the sky, oh-oh
Might be called different names
But they all look the same
Different numbers on the population sign
There's a whole lotta hometowns
Yeah, but only one of them's mine
Most of 'em got a Waffle House
Where you go when you're wasted, but
Did your friends get kicked out for
Talkin' back to the waitress?
Every year when the summer came
Everybody knew we
Hit the spot with the rope swing on the Chattahoochee
Been around the block from coast to coast
Just long enough to know
There's a whole lotta hometowns
Whole lotta Main Streets
Whole lotta parkin' lots packed for the home team
Whole lotta post-game parties
And their pocket fifths tipped to the sky, oh-oh
Might be called different names
But they all look the same
Different numbers on the population sign
There's a whole lotta hometowns
Yeah, but only one of them's mine, oh, yeah
But only one of them's mine
Doesn't matter where you started
Doesn't matter where you go
Every time you stop for gas
Somebody calls that map dot home
There's a whole lotta hometowns
Whole lotta Main Streets
Whole lotta parkin' lots packed for the home team
Whole lotta post-game parties
And their pocket fifths tipped to the sky, oh-oh
Might be called different names
But they all look the same
Different numbers on the population sign
There's a whole lotta hometowns
Yeah, but only one of them's mine, oh, yeah
But only one of them's mine
