"Down Home" Lyrics

(Mac Davis)
(From the movie 'Norwood')

The dogwood trees
The southern breeze
Sets my mind a'spinning
This is the only life
I've ever known.

Surrounded by the evening
And the kind of folks I love
Oh, it's good, Lord it's good
To be down home.

Down home
Where smiling faces shine
Like a morning dew
My fondest memories lie here
I was born here and I'll die here
With my heart full of happiness
And you.

Down home
Where smiling faces shine
Like a morning dew
My fondest memories lie here
I was born here and I'll die here
With my heart full of happiness
And you...
