When I’m away from home
I feel so alone
I wanna talk to you on telephone
And tell you that
I love you, baby
And I miss you so...
I’ve got the hometown blues,
So baby I’m coming home.

Well in my hometown,
Everybody’s related
We all support each other
And family comes first, no matter how much they’re hated
Oh how I miss them so...
I’ve got the hometown blues,
Well baby I’m coming home.

Everybody knows
What's going on

Oh I miss her so...

So baby I’m coming home.

Verse 4:
E   A   E   B7   A   E

Mi Pueblitio es muy chiquito
Y todos se conocen
Son amigos de la escuela y se casaron en la iglesia
Y los hijos se casan con las hija
Ya tienen ninos que se paresen
I’ve got the hometown blues,
So baby I’m coming home.
