Down Home Lyrics

Manfred Mann's Earth Band Down Home

"Down Home"
-----------------------------------------------------------
My sister is a Cajun, came from parts down in the South
The last I heard from her she said that she was getting out
Got busted and arrested 'cause I didn't like the food
I told the manager, he said I think you better move

Down home, down home
Well that's where I wanna be
'Cause it's really good to be
Down home

Got to take the night ride, I got to get away
I've had my life in trouble ever since I came this way
My Papa's in the [?], my momma's hittin' the booze
I got to pack my bags 'cause I ain't got time to lose

Down home, down home
Well that's where I wanna be
'Cause it's really good to be
Down home

Down home, down home
Well that's where I wanna be
'Cause it's really good to be
Down home
