"Hometown Healing" lyrics

Redneck hardware to gypsy soul
I was born to run like the river rolls
I'm that fire where you see that smoke
I'm a lone wolf howling
A red tailed hawk that's done found its wings
I was ready to be high up and free
As soon as I could I couldn't wait to leave
And what I found is
Getting gone and raising hell showed me what I needed
Cause that medicine and that man though I was leaving

And it's been way too long away
From them potluck Alabama roots
And I need some tomato-growing ground up under these boots
If I'm gonna find my way back
To that old me feeling
Just what the doctor ordered
I need some my crowd hometown healing

Get on back to where it started
The baby blue pews and the magic carpet
Mountaintop tread day farmers market
And let it flow right through ya
Momma's got gossip in the beauty shop
While my daddy's making sure that supper gets caught
Sister blowing smoke in the Piggly Wiggly parking lot
That's my remedy

It's been way too long away
From them potluck Alabama roots
And I need some tomato-growing ground up under these boots
If I'm gonna find my way back
To that old me feeling
Just what the doctor ordered
I need some my crowd, hometown healing
Yeah some of that hometown healing

On that Appalachian highway
Hand me down Chevrolet
Where everybody talks with a drawl
Catfish buffet
Fried right at the lake
Hush puppies sitting by the slaw
Start to feel better
Everybody get together
And it's hard not to believe in
Front pew praying
Back road waving
Down home hometown healing

And it's been way too long away
From them potluck Alabama roots
And I need some tomato-growing ground up under these boots
If I'm gonna find my way back
To that old me feeling
Just what the doctor ordered
I need some of that my crowd, hometown healing
Yeah some of that hometown healing
Yeah yeah hometown healing
