Mary Chapin Carpenter - Hometown Girl
Album:
Years ago in my hometown I was a headstrong girl and a heartstrong one / We'd ride all summer with the top rolled down through the sleepy streets of that Jersey town
Now I knew girls when I was sixteen
Could make a smart boy stutter, turn a nice boy mean
And the boys made the girls into homecoming queens
Married each other instead of their dreams
Chorus: these days I'm mostly out on my own
Looking for someplace that I can call home
Late at night, or just before dawn
I pretend you're with me now
It never seemed that hard before
What happened to that hometown girl?
the seasons changed in my hometown
The way they changed in yours
The windows opened up to the Spring
Like every spring before
And I ran with boys who weren't like you
i was young but somehow I knew
the difference between a man and a fool
Sometimes I think that could have been you
Chorus:
Hometown girls are like hometown dreams
Some start fading, others stay keen
I won't forget you but I'll let you be
Love never was that kind to me
Late at night or just before down
I pretend you're with me now
you had your madness and you had your charm
but only when your heart allowed
and my heart just won't allow no more
What happened to that hometown girl?
- Miłość jest mgłą, która wytwarza się w głowie. Jeśli owa mgła opada na doł - na serce - następuje pogoda życia; jeśli pozostaje w głowie - pada deszcz łęz
- Jeśli myślisz, że jesteś tym, za kogo uważają cię twoi przyjaciele i twoi wrogowie, to znaczy, że z pewnością siebie nie znasz. Anthony de Mello (1931 - 1987)
- Absit - oby nie; uchowaj Boże.

MUDVAYNE SLAM RADIO WITH THEIR FASTEST-RISING SINGLE YET
"DO WHAT YOU DO" IS #1 MOST ADDED AT ACTIVE ROCK AND #2 MOST ADDED AT MODERN ROCK
BAND OPENS UP TICKET SALES AT ALL OUTLETS
(Monday, September 29)
AND PARTNERS WITH BESTBUY TO ADD A FREE LIVE WEBCAST OF THEIR CONCERT TO FAN CLUB MEMBERS
MUDVAYNE--one of the most creative and distinctive bands in the aggressive music world with sales exceeding 5 million units worldwide--have slammed onto the charts with "Do What You Do," the fastest-rising single of their career. Garnering over 75 radio adds out of the box--in the first 36 hours the track became available this week--the song is #1 most added at the Active Rock chart and #2 most added at Modern Rock.
As the band prepare to release THE NEW GAME--their first studio album in three years, due out November 18 via Epic Records--the band is working even harder to get the best possible deal directly to their fans in light of the tough economy by opening up ticket sales of their upcoming tour to all outlets and partnering with Best Buy to add a free live web cast of their concert to fan club members who pre-order the album at bestbuy.com/mudvayne. "We want fans that cannot afford to see us live or that live outside our tour markets to still get the benefits of our âThe Album Is The TicketTM' program," says singer Chad Gray, "and by adding the live webcast and releasing ticket sales to the general public, we are now able to offer fans even more value and options for their money in this rough financial time."
The concert webcast will be from one of the tour stops (TBA) on the first leg of "The New Game Tour 2008." Meanwhile, all tickets will be released at all outlets by Monday, September 29th. All current âThe Album Is The Ticket' members are entitled to a free meet & greet at their selected show.
