Lyrics down home - Jimmie Allen

down home

I bet you’re up there, making new friends
I’m pretty sure you’re loving every minute
If there’s a golden pond full of fish
I bet you already caught everything in it
I bet you’re making everybody laugh with your jokes
I know you’re holding nothing but the best kind of hope
Shining a light up there with a big old smile
And meanwhile down home
Oh, you know mama’s still cooking
Them down home grits
I promise I’m working
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 making you proud
'Cause I know you’re up there looking 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 bumping Charley Pride
Yeah, every song keeps right here with me
I got a daughter now I really you’d have met
She’s almost walking now but I know you see every step
I wear the number 15 every chance I get
So when you’re looking through the clouds, Daddy
You can bet
That down home
Oh, you know mama’s still cooking
Them down home grits
I promise I’m working
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 making you proud
'Cause I know you’re up there looking down home
Oh, down home
Daddy, don’t you worry
'Cause everything, everything, everything’s good
Down home
Oh yeah
Down home
That down home
Oh, you know mama’s still cooking
Them down home grits
I promise I’m working
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 making you proud
'Cause I know you’re up there looking down home
Oh, down home
We still miss you
We still miss you
We miss you down home
