Songtext zu 'Girls in My Hometown' von Danielle Bradbery

When I turn on the news
When I drive by a church
When I flip through a country station
When I see cool kids in the parking lot
Living up to their reputation

When I'm three drinks in
And some guys hittin' on a blonde, three stools down
When the talk gets cheap
I cannot think about the girls in my hometown
Are they getting married?
Are they getting jaded?

When they think seventeen
Do they think of me and wonder if I made it?
Are they really happy?
Are they making daddy proud?
What makes 'em cry?
What gets 'em high?

I think about the girls in my hometown
When I see a denim jacket
When I hear a kid say a dirty word
When my faith's running low
And me and God ain't on the best of terms
When I'm out with someone and we lose our buzz
And the conversation dies out

I go home by myself and I cannot think about
The girls in my hometown
Are they getting married?
Are they getting jaded?

When they think seventeen
Do they think of me and wonder if I made it?
Are they really happy?
Are they making daddy proud?
What makes 'em cry?
What gets 'em high?

I think about the girls in my hometown
When I hear the song Strawberrry Wine
I think about all of the fences, all painted white
I think about falling in love, the meaning of life
I think about the girls in my hometown

Are they getting married?
Are they getting jaded?
Am I bright in their mind like it's summertime
Or just a little faded?
Are they really happy?
Are they making daddy proud?

In the back of my mind
Did they get it right?
I think about the girls in my hometown
What makes 'em cry?
What gets 'em high?
I think about the girls in my hometown
