Just off of the

beaten path

A little dot
On a state road map

That's where I was born

And where I'll die
Things move at a

slower pace

Nobody's in the rat race
Down home

Where they know you

By name
And treat you

Like family

Down home
They can fall back on

Those of us

Raised up
In the corner

01 the hardware store

Gathered 'round
A checkerboard

Old men telling lies

And crowning kings
Kids driving 'round

The old town square

Tops rolled down
Down home

Where they know you

by name
A man's good word

And. a handshake

Are all you need
Folks know

If they're falling

0n hard times
They can fall back on

Those of us

Raised up
When I was a boy

I couldn't wait

To leave this place
And now I want to see

My children raised

Down home
Down home
Folks know

If they're falling

0n hard times
They can fall back on

Those of us raised up
And treat you

Like family

Down home
A man's good word

And. a handshake

Are all you need
They can fall back on

Those of us

Raised up
Down hooome

Down hooome

Way down hooomme
Down home

Way down home
