Never Forget Your Old Hometown

Never forget who you are. Never forget where you came from. Avoid fighting a sad war Against old friends. You can go back home Again. You can contribute to the well being Of this society. You can continue humming The songs of yesteryear with a new tone. You can sing and dance from spring to autumn. Never forget your old hometown. When things aren't copasetic, when you're down, You can go home again to meet a new camarade. You can reminisce and join the parade.
