hometown

Oh-oh, oh-oh We never had snow like this in Texas Neighbors say that it's too cold The winter's always been the only time That everyone I love stays home And, oh, I know this won't last forever We're not frozen like the ice And, oh, and, so I thank god for the weather 'Cause it's keeping us inside One day your voice will be a memory Suddenly, your seat at the table will be empty Your tire tracks in the road Will be covered up in snow (oh-oh, oh-oh) Family's gathered in your kitchen Over time, the sink gets piled up with dishes When you go, I can hold down The winter in our hometown Know I should've made more time, I'm trying for this year On your birthday, forgot to call (oh-oh, oh-oh) You told me in the morning you won't always be here Don't like thinking 'bout it all (oh-oh, oh-oh) And, oh, I know this won't last forever We're not frozen like the ice (oh-oh, oh-oh) And, oh, and, so, I thank god for the weather 'Cause it's keeping us inside (oh-oh, oh-oh) One day your voice will be a memory Suddenly, your seat at the table will be empty Your tire tracks in the road Will be covered up in snow (oh-oh, oh-oh) Family's gathered in your kitchen Over time, the sink gets piled up with dishes When you go, I can hold down (oh-oh, oh-oh) The winter in our hometown (oh-oh, oh-oh) And I know I'm always running my mouth But I understand we're being serious now When you have to go, I'll make the family proud I'll keep the fire from dying out (oh-oh, oh-oh) And I'm glad I was raised in the south It taught me to keep my two feet on the ground I'll steady the ship, this is my earthly bow (oh-oh, oh-oh) I'll keep the fire from dying out (oh-oh, oh-oh) One day your voice will be a memory Suddenly, your seat at the table will be empty When you go, I can hold down (hold down) The winter in our hometown
