Rick bowles/josh leo

Just off of the beaten path
A little dot on a state road map
Thats where I was born and where Ill die
Things move at a slower pace
Nobodys in the rat race
And these days thats a special way of life

Chorus:
Down home, where they know you by name
And treat you like family
Down home, a mans godd word and s hand shake
Are all you need
Folks know, if they;re fallnig on hard times
They can fall back on
Thos of us raised up down home

In the corner of the hardware store
Gathered round a checkerboard
Old men telling lies and crowning kings
Kids driving round th eold town square
Tops rolled down in the coll night air
Do and see whats shaking at the dairy queen

Rpeat chorus

Bridge
When I was a boy, I couldnt wait to leave this place
Butnow I want to see my children raised down home, down home

Folks know, if theyre falling on hard times
They can fall back on
Those of us raised up...

Repeat chorus
