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
