Going Back to Bowenville - Stu Larsen

When I was a little boy

I was so shy and resolute

Someone knocking at the front door

I’d go and hide in my room

And if you call me on the telephone

I wouldn’t wanna talk with you

Yeah, when I was a little boy

I was so shy and resolute

And when I was 17

I felt like I had it all

I left school, I moved towns, I got a job

Working in a grocery store

I didn’t wanna go too far

And I never really wanted more

Yeah, when I was 17

I felt like I had it all

Now I’m a little older

And I feel more like a man

Now I’m a little wiser

I can find my way back home again

I’m going back to Bowenville

Where people know your name

I’m going back to Bowenville

Where everything stays the same

Bowenville don’t change

And when I turned 26

Well, I just walked away

I think about it all the time

What if I had’ve stayed

But there’s nothing that a man can do

To rewind his yesterdays

Yeah, when I turned 26

Well, I just walked away

Now I’m a little older

And I feel more like a man

Now I’m a little wiser

I can find my way back home again

I’m going back to Bowenville

Where people know your name

I’m going back to Bowenville

Where everything stays the same

I’m going back to Bowenville

Where people know your name

I’m going back to Bowenville

Where everything stays the same

I’m going back to Bowenville

Where people know your name

I’m going back to Bowenville

Where everything stays the same

Bowenville don’t change

Bowenville don’t change
