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

And these days that´s a special way of life

Down home, where they know you by name
And treat you like family
Down home, a man´s good word and hand shake
Are all you need
Folks know if they´re falling on hard times
They can fall back on
Those 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 the old town square
Tops rolled down in the cool night air
Go and see what´s shaking at the Dairy Queen

Down home, where they know you by name

And treat you like family
Down home, a man´s good word and hand shake
Are all you need
Folks know if they´re falling on hard times
They can fall back on
Those of us raised up down home

When I was a boy, I couldn´t wait to leave this place
But now I want to see my children raised down home, down home

Folks know if they´re falling on hard times
They can fall back on
Those of us raised up...

Down home, where they know you by name
And treat you like family

Down home, a man´s good word and hand shake
Are all you need
Folks know if they´re falling on hard times
They can fall back on
Those of us raised up down home
