Alabama - Down Home Lyrics
Rick bowles/josh leoJust off of the beaten pathA little dot on a state road mapThats where I was born and where Ill dieThings move at a slower paceNobodys in the rat raceAnd these days thats a special way of lifeChorus:Down home, where they know you by nameAnd treat you like familyDown home, a mans godd word and s hand shakeAre all you needFolks know, if they;re fallnig on hard timesThey can fall back onThos of us raised up down homeIn the corner of the hardware storeGathered round a checkerboardOld men telling lies and crowning kingsKids driving round th eold town squareTops rolled down in the coll night airDo and see whats shaking at the dairy queenRpeat chorusBridgeWhen I was a boy, I couldnt wait to leave this placeButnow I want to see my children raised down home, down homeFolks know, if theyre falling on hard timesThey can fall back onThose of us raised up...Repeat chorus(c) 1990 maypop music (a division of wildcountry, inc.) bmi & warner/elektra/asylum music, inc./mopage music(bmi). all rights reserved.
