Hometown Glory

I've been walking

In the same way as I did

Missing out

The cracks in the pavement

And tutting my heel

And strutting my feet

"Is there anything

I can do for you dear?

Is there anyone I can call?"

"No and thank you, please Madam

I ain't lost, just wandering"


Round my hometown

Memories are fresh

Round my hometown

Ooh, the people I've met


Are the wonders of my world

Are the wonders of my world

Are the wonders of this world

Are the wonders of my world


I like it in the city

When the air

Is so thick and opaque

I love to see everybody

In short skirts

Shorts and shades

I like it in the city

When two worlds collide

You get the people

And the government

Everybody taking

Different sides


Shows that

We ain't gonna stand shit

Shows

That we are united

Shows

That we ain't gonna take it

Shows

That we ain't gonna stand shit

Shows that we are united


Round my hometown

Memories are fresh

Round my hometown

Ooh the people I've met


Are the wonders of my world

Are the wonders of my world

Are the wonders of this world

Are the wonders of my world
