I bet you're up there
makin' new friends
I'm pretty sure you're
lovin' every minute
If there's a golden pond
full of fish
I bet you already caught
everything in it
I bet you're makin' everybody
laugh with your jokes
I know you're holdin' nothin'
But the best kind of hope
Shinin' a light up there
with a big old smile
Yeah
And meanwhile
Down home
Oh you know Mama's
still cookin'
Them down home grits
I promise I'm workin'
With this guitar about as hard
as I can
I met a girl bought a house
Put a nice little paymеnt
Down home
is still where my hеart is
This down home kid
is just how you left him
I still hate that you're gone
I wish you were here
But I hope I'm makin'
you proud
'Cause I know you're up there
lookin' down home
There ain't a day down here
that goes by
That I don't climb up in
my F-150
On a backroad bumpin'
Charley Pride
Yeah every song keeps you
right here with me
I got a daughter now
I really wish you'd've met
Yeah she's walkin' now
But I know you see every step
I wear the number fifteen
every chance I get
So when you're lookin' through
the clouds Daddy you can bet
That down home
Oh you know Mama's
still cookin'
Them down home grits
I promise I'm workin'
With this guitar about as hard
as I can
I met a girl bought a house
Put a nice little payment
Down home
is still where my heart is
This down home kid
is just how you left him
I still hate that you're gone
I wish you were here
But I hope I'm makin'
you proud
'Cause I know you're up there
lookin' down home
Daddy don't you worry
Oh no
'Cause everything everything
Everything's good
Down home yeah
Oh oh oh oh oh oh yeah
Down home
Oh you know Mama's
still cookin'
Them down home grits
I promise I'm workin'
With this guitar about as hard
as I can
I met a girl bought a house
Put a nice little payment
Down home
is still where my heart is
This down home kid
is just how you left him
I still hate that you're gone
I wish you were here
But I hope I'm makin'
you proud
'Cause I know you're up there
lookin' down home
Down home
Down home yeah
We still miss you
We still miss you
We miss you down home
