ALABAMA - Down Home lyrics

rate me

Just off of the beaten path

A little dot on a state road map

That's where I was born & where I'll die

Things move at a slower pace

Nobody's in a rat race

And these days that's a special way to fly

Down home where they know you by name and treat you like family

Down home a man's good word and a handshake are all you need

Folks know if they're fallin on hard times they can fall back on

Those of us raised up down home

In the corner of a hardware store

Gathered round a checker board

Old men telling lies & crowning kings

Kids drivin round the old town square

Tops rolled down in the cool nite air

Go & see what's shakin at the Dairy Queen

Down home where they know you by name and treat you like family

Down home a man's good word and a handshake are all you need

Folks know if they're fallin on hard times they can fall back on

Those of us raised up down home

When I was a boy I couldn't wait to leave this place

But now I wanna see my children raised

Down home

Down home

Folks know if they're fallin on hard times they can fall back on

Those of us raised up down home

Where they know you by name and treat you like family

Down Home a man's good word & a handshake are all you need

Folks know if they're fallin on hard times they can fall back on

Those of us raised up down home

Down home

Way down home

Down home

Down home

Way down home

Down home
