| Song | Down in My Hometown |
| Artist | The Flatlanders |
| Album | More a Legend Than a Band |
| 作词 : Gilmore | |
| (Jimmie Dale Gilmore) | |
| Down in my hometown there is a fortune | |
| They used call it gold but now it's love I'm told | |
| With a worried mind I put my time in | |
| But hunger comes and goes even while the wild wind blows | |
| Now I could sing you a song of inspiration | |
| Or of new world where everyone is free | |
| But know you there ain't no new way to salvation | |
| The time is gettin' short my friends for you and me | |
| Down in my hometown there is a fortune | |
| They used call it gold but now it's love I'm told | |
| (Instrumental) | |
| Now when I left there, my eyes cast down in sorrow | |
| So very soon I found the darkness on the ground | |
| And now I see the clouds gatherin' for tomorrow | |
| But I must journey on the one road I have found | |
| Down in my hometown there is a fortune | |
| They used call it gold but now it's love I'm told | |
| With a worried mind I put my time in | |
| But hunger comes and goes even while the wild wind blows |
