Alabama - down home текст песни

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
