Nobody Knows Me Back In My Hometown Letra

Well back in Colorado in those days when I was young, I had my hopes and dreams of fame, like most everyone, So I left home with songs to sing and fame I finally found, But nobody knows me back in my hometown, Nobody knows me back in my hometown. My name is known in half the world, I'm called a superstar, I've shook the hands of presidents, I've traveled near and far, But deep inside I feel the hurt that sometimes gets me down, Nobody knows me back in my hometown, Nobody knows me back in my hometown. One of these days I'm gonna go back home and walk those streets again, I'm gonna sing some songs and right some wrongs that I did to my old friends, Then I'll tell the home folks where I've been so I'll never hear again, That nobody knows me back in my hometown, That nobody knows me back in my hometown. I've made my share of movies, I've seen my name in lights, I've done what others dream about on long cold winter nights, I've climbed that ladder of success with that good old country sound, But nobody knows me back in my hometown, Nobody knows me back in my hometown. If I could have one yesterday to change one tick of time, I'd choose that day in Denver when I left my friends behind, I'd tell them I'd be back someday if they'd just stay around, But nobody knows me back in my hometown, Nobody knows me back in my hometown. One of these days I'm gonna go back home and walk those streets again, I'm gonna sing some songs and right some wrongs that I did to my old friends, Then I'll tell the home folks where I've been so I'll never hear again, That nobody knows me back in my hometown, Nobody knows me back in my hometown.
