down home

i got to pack and go going back where i come from

and the folks i really know

down home way down home

i got to say goodbye

how i miss the taste of grandma's potato pie

and the pretty girls come in bunches

and they never treat you wrong

down home way down home

watermelon costs but a dime

and the fish by the river

they jump they jump on your line

i got to go you see

city life can never take the country out of me

so i'm going back where i come from

and i never gonna roam

from home way down home

and the fish down by the river

jump on your line

i got to go you see

anyone who asks for me

tell them i have gone back home

gonna fall back with that living

and i'm never gonna roam

from home way down home

down home way down home

down home way down home
