Hometown Blues Lyrics


Walk up down rundown avenues and back through swollen city veins
Now sobered up enough to understand that nothing stays the same
Overpopulated crowds you'd think I'd find a place that I'd
Attach myself upon somewhere I felt alive until I dieThese hometown blues follow me home again
The closer I go I feel further awayWalk back down run down avenues and attitudes are everywhere
Pass a drunken argument they roll around and people stare
Finally hit the underground and no surprise I turn to find
Two men for twenty pound of mine if I'm alive they'll have me dieThese hometown blues follow me home again
The closer I go I feel further away
further away, further away, further awayThese hometown blues follow me home again
The closer I go I feel further awayThese hometown blues follow me home again
The closer I go I feel further away

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Harmonica player/vocalist Lew Lewis made one album for Stiff Records in 1979, Save the Wail, as well as a couple of 1979-1980 singles for Stiff, and an earlier one for United Artists. Before going solo he'd been in Eddie & the Hot Rods, though he left that notable pub rock-new wave crossover band after their 1976 debut single, "Writing on the Wall"/"Cruisin' in the Lincoln." Lewis was a good, bluesy Little Walter-influenced harmonica player.
