The dogwood trees
And the southern breeze
Set my mi-ind a'spinnin'
This is the only life
I've ever known.
Surrounded by the evenin'
And the kind of folks I lo-ove
Oh it's good, Lord it's good
To be down home.
Down ho.. o-o-o-me
Where smilin' 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 ho.. o-o-o-o-ome
Where smilin' faces shine
Like a mornin' dew
My fondest memories lie here
I was born here and I'll die here
With my heart full of happiness
And you..
