Just off of

The beaten path,
A lime dot on a
State road map
Thai's where I was born

And where I'll die
Things move of a
Slower pace,

Nobody's in the

Rat ra ce
And these days

Thafs a special
Way of life
Down home,
Where they know ya

By name and treat you

Like fa mily
Down home,
A man's good word

And a handshake

Are all you need
Folks know,
If they're follin' on

Hard times,
They can fall back on
Those of us raised up

Down home
In the corner of the
Ho rdwa re store,

Gathered 'round
A checkerboa rd
Old men fellin' lies

And crownin' kings
Kids drivin' 'round
The old Town Square,

Tops rolled down in the
Cool night air
Down home,
Where they know ya

By name and treat you

Like fa mily
Down home,
A man's good word

And a handshake

Are all you need
Folks know,
If they're follin' on

Hard times,
They can fall back on
Those of us raised up

Down home
When I was a boy,

I could n'i wait
To leave this place
But now I wanna see

My children raised
Down home,

Down home
Folks know
If they're follin' on

Hard times,
They can fall back on
Those of us raised up
Down home,

Where they know ya
By name and treat you

Like fa mily
Down home,
A man's good word

And a handshake

Are all you need
Folks know,
If they're follin' 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

We both said

Some things,
I know we never meant
And when I slammed
The door tonight,

You wondered
Where I went
If I know you,

You're probably
Wonderin' what to do
