Will Hodge - Growing Up Around Here lyrics

Well it's been so long, I swore I'd never come back To this sleepy little one horse, dot on the map But the roots run deep in this rocky red ground And I could feel that pull every road I went down Growin' up around here in this tail light town I spent 17 years tryin' to find a way out Took a whole lotta miles to know what I know now I'm kinda proud of growin' up around here Well I kiss my first girl behind that Texaco sign I drank my first cold beer by that river side Yeah, I played a little football, I got a letter on my jacket I bet it's still in that box up there in my mama's attic Growin' up around here in this tail light town I spent 17 years tryin' to find a way out Took a whole lotta miles to know what I know now I'm kinda proud of growin' up around here Yeah, I know some day, no matter how far I roam Oh I'll end up back this way and I'll call this place home Yeah, there's no place like home Growin' up around here in this tail light town I spent 17 years tryin' to find a way out Took a whole lotta miles to know what I know now Growin' up around here in this tail light town I spent 17 years tryin' to find a way out Took a whole lotta miles to know what I know now I'm kinda proud of growin' up around here Growin' up around Yeah, I'm proud of growin' up around here
