Hometown Girls Songtext
von The Strypes

I wanna tell you but I can′t spit it out
T-t-t-tripping on my tongue and my mouth is stiff
Feels like I'm hanging off the edge of a cliff
And my eyes can′t pick a pocket where they're happy to stick
I'm running from the point
Babe, I′m missing a trick with you
My line is up but girl I′m missing my cue.


But can't you give me a fix, so I′m craving confidence?
Well, I reek of sweat and teenage innocence
Well, I want you so, but I know you'll never know
Cause I′m too shy, I'm too shy for the hometown girl!

I wanna tell you but I′m sick with the fright
S-s-s-slipping up I'm caught in the light of lust
I get the feeling that you ain't too fussed.
My head feels heavy as the regret sinks in
I shouldn′t be afraid to take it on the chin
But I duck, I miss the jab but I′m hit with the hook

But can't you give me a fix, so I′m craving confidence?
Well, I reek of sweat and teenage innocence
Well, I want you so, but I know you'll never know
Cause I′m too shy, I'm too shy for the hometown girl!
