My hometown is not the same charming place I once knew.
With it’s people and it’s fields where the sunflowers grew.
And the best thing of those years, that made my childhood full and rich.
Was that old worn-out cabin close to the bridge.

Oh someday I’ll tell my kids about that cabin near the bridge.
Where I played with my friends every day.
Yeah my mind still lives in that cabin near the bridge.
Where I’ve loved every moment, where I’ve laughed and I’ve cried.

I remember that little candy store on main street.
Where we begged to our parents to give us money for sweets.
As I look back at that time and while I’m singing this song.
I wish I was back at my old childhood home.

Oh someday I’ll tell my kids about that cabin near the bridge.
Where I played with my friends every day.
Yeah my mind still lives in that cabin near the bridge.
Where I’ve loved every moment, where I’ve laughed and I’ve cried.

My hometown grew bigger.
My friends and I left.
And all that we loved slowly fades.
But it might need a paint job and has cracks in its walls.
The cabin near the bridge is still standing tall.

Oh someday I’ll tell my kids about that cabin near the bridge.
Where I played with my friends every day.
Yeah my mind still lives in that cabin near the bridge.
Where I’ve loved every moment, where I’ve laughed and I’ve cried.
