Town Born Child Lyrics

Well I'm a town born child

I've got braces on my name

And you can bet when I show up

I bring all my ghosts with me

Well I'm a town born son

And when the morning comes

I will wash off the dust of the

Dreams that I never got done

Now I'm keeping an eye out for you

'Cause you come from where I want to go to

You got the melodies and music in your ear

So sing this town born child away from here

Well I'm a town born child

And all my teachers knew my brothers

And when I stepped into a classroom

I was just like the others

I'm a town born child

But my mind's been wondering out for a while

And I never pushed fast or forward

But I always could hold my tongue and force a smile

On my own, driving home

I dream of summer in the winter

And when spring rolls on I skip my stones

But never watch when they go under and down
