Don't You Know I'm from Here

I could get here with my eyes closed and one hand on the wheel
 But I like to see the rows and rows of corn it makes me feel
 Like a kid again, I slowly watch my hometown reappear
 I know my accent's gone but I would not put you on
 Don't you know I'm from here?
 I left here full of vinegar back in '99
 Guitar in my back seat, big time on my mind
 My desire to leave the old me in the dust
 Could not have been more sincere
 I looked down my nose at friends, turns out I might need them again
 Don't you know I'm from herе?
 Don't you know I'm from here?
 They didn't еven crack a smile
 Don't you know I'm from here?
 Though I've been gone for a while
 Maybe this little town looked better in my rearview mirror
 Don't you know I'm from here?
 Don't you know I'm from here?
 So I went down to the grocery store for gasoline and Coke
 There used to be a greasy spoon downstairs where you could smoke
 One side was a hardware shop
 With a little ice cream counter in the rear
 But it does not look the same and nobody knows my name
 Don't you know I'm from here?
 Don't you know I'm from here?
 They didn't even crack a smile
 Don't you know I'm from here?
 Though I've been gone for a while
 Maybe this little town looked better in my rearview mirror
 Don't you know I'm from here?
 Don't you know I'm from here?
 Well, I've never been a quitter, but I know when I've been beat
 And it soothes my wounded pride to feel this dirt under my feet
 So I'm looking for a job, nobody's hiring
 That's been made perfectly clear
 I'll find one eventually I know, cause I've got nowhere else to go
 Don't you know I'm from here?
 Don't you know I'm from here?
 They didn't even crack a smile
 Don't you know I'm from here?
 Though I've been gone for a while
 Maybe this little town looked better in the rearview mirror
 Don't you know I'm from here?
 Don't you know I'm from here?
 Don't you know I'm from here?
 Don't you know I'm from here?
