Met a princess once in Sweden
She wore cowgirl boots and said she liked my show
Found a brown-eyed girl who keeps me dreaming
And sang my heart out with my hero in Mexico

Well, I took a big old bite out of the Big Apple
Took one taste to know it's great but not for me
And of all the places that I've traveled
I can only think of one I hate to leave

Where I can see those stars
Where the waves crash hard

Take me back to way back when
All my fans were my best friends
Yeah, I've been gone on this road too long
Hometown hills and family, yeah
They bring out the best of me
I find my soul
Playing for the greatest audience of all

Saw a double rainbow in Nebraska
But it only made me miss Multnomah Falls
And sometimes you forget what you've been after
Till you hear that familiar voice giving you a call

Where the streets don't change
Where the lights don't fade

Take me back to way back when
All my fans were my best friends
Yeah, I've been gone on this road too long
Too long, too long, too long
Hometown hills and family, yeah
They bring out the best of me
I find my soul
Playing for the greatest audience of all

So take me back to Oregon
Singing campfire songs with my best friends
Yeah, I've been gone on this road too long

Hometown hills and family, yeah
They bring out the best of me
I find my soul
Playing for the greatest audience of all
The greatest audience of all
Yeah, you're the greatest audience of all
