Hometown Heroes Lyrics

Ah Henry, you sure bought that whole James Dean thing

Right down to the end

Drinking beer, banging gears

On the outside looking in

It was a desperate time on small town stage

With no prize comin' for the coming of age

So you burned with a passion and you burned with a rage

Till the fire done pulled you in

And, me I was just a green-eyed kid

And you were two years older than me

As I look back on those days my friend

You were what we all wanted to be

Henry, you were quick with a smile

Good with a wheel, cool with the women

As you made your spiel

Like we were all gonna rise in flash of steel

In some teenage fantasy

So look out you hometown heroes

Look out you homecoming queens

There's a bad kid comin' to the party tonight

And he's coming apart at the seamsMarty Stuart - Hometown Heroes - http://motolyrics.com/marty-stuart/hometown-heroes-lyrics.html

Now your old man still stares at the streets sometimes

With that lost look in his eyes

And your sad momma wakes in the heat of the night

And thinks about her baby and cries

Now the all-night crew's all settled down

It's been thirteen years in the same old town

The sun comes up and the rain falls down

On that hillside where you lie

So look out you hometown heroes

Look out you homecoming queens

There's a bad kid comin' to the party tonight

And he's coming apart at the seams

So look out you hometown heroes

Look out you homecoming queens

There's a bad kid comin' to the party tonight

And he's coming apart at the seams

So look out you hometown heroes

Look out you homecoming queens

There's a bad kid comin' to the party tonight

And he's coming apart at the seams
