Down Home
作詞：Carl E Jackson, Sylvia Rutledge
My granddad worked a sawmill, wore his fingers to the bone
Making just enough to keep the family fed
But he never seemed to worry, somehow they'd get along
Even though he knew they'd never get ahead
For forty some odd years, he broke the same old piece of ground
And granny put up peas and corn, and maize in jars
There was bread upon the table and love enough to go around
They never seemed to know this life was hard
Down home, the willows weeping, down home, the river rolls
So long ago I wandered but the feelings never fade
And time cannot erase all the memories we made
Down home
Mom and daddy toiled countless hours
Just the way my grand folks did
And the common thread held us through thick and thin

Though I know they wanted better
Than the things they had to give
Looking back, I don't think it could've been
Down home, the cattle lowing, down home, the cotton hide
So long ago I wandered but the feelings never fade
And time cannot erase all the memories we made
Down home
I listen to the highway when my mama's words know mine
I was so sure, a better life I'd find
Now as I'm staring at the madness, racing twenty floors below
In my mind I turned back the years in gold
Down home, a fires burning, down home, a fiddle plays
So long ago I wandered but the feelings never fade
And time cannot erase all the memories we made
Down home
