Hometown - 1937 - Flanagan and Allen from 'London Rhapsody'

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 24 Oct 2001

I can see a bunch of small town hicks
sittin' round the local store
awhittlin' sticks
In my home town,
'WhydidIeverroam' town?
(I must be crazy)
tho' the city gals are not so slow.
take me to the cornfed gals I used to know.
I'm lonesome night and day
for that well known new mown hay.

Hometown want to wander
round your back streets,
see your tumble down old shack streets,
I'd love to walk in on
those corny country cousins of mine.
Hometown where the dove's are softly cooin',
where there's always nothin' doin'
I'd get a welcome from
those corny country cousins of mine.
There's an old school house door
we used to tumble thro' at four
and a small candy store
where I could go a dozen lollipops
and come for more.
Hometown where the garden trees are shady
where our Eadie was a lady
I'm going back to see
those corny country cousins of mine.
