Used to go to the drive-in in my dad’s old truck
Watching from the bed I would press my luck
Hoping to steal a kiss or get to second base
Have to get you home before it got too late
I hear that drive-in’s long been closed
And I’m here stirring up old ghosts
And I wonder what else has changed
And I wonder if anything I remember remains
Then I saw on the news the people gathered in the streets
I close my eyes and bow my head in defeat
As I watch them tear that statue down
And I think that’s not my hometown
Yeah, I remember when that town was full of love
And how before we ate we’d thank God above
And now I watch them burning those buildings down
And I think that’s not my hometown
It’s been a minute since I went to visit
Wonder if you’re still living in it
It seems like yesterday in my memory
If I never left would there be you and me
Going to church in my Sunday best
And that time I can’t forget
When we drove out to lovers lane
Our first time in the back of my mustang
Man, those are good memories
Man, we used to run those streets
Those same streets now that I see on the news
They say there’s a side and you have to choose
And I watch them tear that statue down
And I think that’s not my hometown
Yeah, I remember when that town was full of love
And before we ate we thanked God above
And I watch them burning those buildings down
And I think that’s not my hometown
I can’t believe my own eyes
This has to be some kind of lie
I fall to my knees and start to cry
I can’t believe my own eyes
I watch them tear that statue down
And I think that’s not my hometown
And I watch them burning those buildings down
And I think that’s not my hometown
And I think that can’t be my hometown
