Erin Kinsey - Hate This Hometown lyrics

All the stereo types
Friday night lights
I hate to say they're true
All the football games
And the drama queens
With nothin' better to do
I swore I wouldn't miss that
I said I'd never come back here
Had the U-Haul packed before
I walked the stage at graduation
I was ready to fly over the red lights
That kept me waitin'
From the second they turned green
I got out and gone for three years

It's amazing what
A little time and space
Can do to a place

When I drive down these roads
I see you and me at sixteen
When I never coulda known
Comin' back would be so sweet
Every chance I get, I wanna go now
Every memory makes me
Wanna slow down
You make it hard
To hate this hometown

That nothin'goin' on corner store
And that lakeview parkin' lot
Your parents' old red brick house
They moved out, but it's still got
A whole lot of you and me
And, baby, that's all I see now

It's amazin' what fallin' in love'll do
To a place you thought you knew

When I drive down these roads
I see you and me at sixteen
When I never coulda known
Comin' back would be so sweet
Every chance I get, I wanna go now
Every memory makes me
Wanna slow down
You make it hard
To hate this hometown
You make it hard
To hate this hometown
You make it hard
To hate this hometown

When I drive down
These roads, yeah
I almost wanna stay
Oh, I never coulda known
How my feelings could change
Every chance that I get
I wanna go now
Every memory makes me
Wanna slow down
You make it hard
To hate this hometown
You make it hard
To hate this hometown

Mmm
