Way down home, way down home I got to pack and go
Goin' back where I come from
And folks I really know
Where the roosters crow in the mornin'
And you'll wake up with a song
Down home, way down home I got to say goodbye
How I miss the taste
Of Grandma's sweet potato pie
And the pretty girls come in bunches
And they never treat you wrong
Down home, way down home Watermelon costs but a dime
And the fish down by the river
They jump, they jump on your line I got to go, you see
City life can never take
The country out of me
So I'm goin' back where I come from
And I'm never gonna roam
From home, way down home Watermelon costs but a dime
And the fish down by the river
Jump on your line I got to go, you see
Anyone who asks for me
Tell 'em I have gone back home
Gonna fall back in with that livin'
And I'm never gonna roam
From home, way down home Down home, way down home
Down home, way down home
Down home
