Avalon, My Hometown

Lyrics

Avalon, my hometown, always on my mind
 ♪
 Avalon's my hometown, always on my mind
 ♪
 Pretty women in Avalon; wanna be there all the time
 ♪
 I left Avalon this morning, 'bout half past nine
 ♪
 I left Avalon this morning
 Pretty women in Avalon; wanna be there all the time
 ♪
 And when I left Avalon, throwing kisses and waving at me
 ♪
 I left Avalon this morning
 ♪
 Now I'm standing here in this cloud of mystery
 ♪
 Said "come here daddy, now, stay right here with me
 ♪
 Oh come back daddy, now
 Oh come back daddy, now, stay right here with me
 Oh, mm"
 ♪
 Mmm, I hate to tell you
 Oh I hate to tell you, pretty mamma, but you got to know
 ♪
 Oh, I hate to tell you
 ♪
 I'm leaving Avalon, ain't coming back no more
 ♪
 Now, New York's a good town, but it's not for mine
 ♪
 New York's a good town
 ♪
 Ah, it sure doesn't have what I left Avalon to find
 ♪
 Mmm, there's just one thing I, I can't understand
 ♪
 Yeah, there's just one thing that
 ♪
 Many pretty women in Avalon, and I'm just one man
 ♪
 Avalon's, my hometown, always on my mind
 ♪
 Avalon's my hometown, always on my mind
 ♪
 Pretty women in Avalon; wanna be there all the time
