Down Home

Chorus

Down in the South, where the wild things sing

Down at the creek as the daylight clings

Down by the water with the red clay ground

Down at the bottom of the hill, I’m southbound

Down, down, down I’m going down

Down home, where my roots are found

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, down home

Oh-oh, down home

Verse 2

Shade from the cypress, cool on my skin

Granddad’s old cabin, let the stories begin

Laughter and fiddles drifting through the night

Sweet southern comfort, fireflies in sight

Pre-Chorus

Ain’t no map could ever show

The road that takes me where I go

Every memory calls my name

Where the river runs the same

Chorus

Down in the South, where the wild things sing

Down at the creek as the daylight clings

Down by the water with the red clay ground

Down at the bottom of the hill, I’m southbound

Down, down, down I’m going down

Down home, where my roots are found

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, down home

Oh-oh, down home

Bridge

Down at the bottom of the mountains tall

Where wild horses wander and whippoorwills call

Looking down from the bluff, that old wooden fence

Heart running deeper than it ever did since

Chorus

Down in the South, where the wild things sing

Down at the creek as the daylight clings

Down by the water with the red clay ground

Down at the bottom of the hill, I’m southbound

Down, down, down I’m going down

Down home, where my roots are found

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, down home

Oh-oh, down home

Outro

Down in the shade where the old tires swing

Barefoot and muddy with the robins in spring

Down by the water, skipping stones ‘til dusk

Wind through the pine and the red dirt dust

Down, down, just another round

Down home, where my heart is bound

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, down home

Oh-oh, down home

Oh-oh, down home

Oh-oh, down home
