"Don't Let Me Down Home" lyrics

All the highways, all the late nights
Been wearin' me out like a fist fight
I've been missin' you wishin' I could hear you call my name
It's been a long time since I've seen you
But you're stuck in my veins like a tattoo
No, I ain't the same, but I pray that you ain't changed

I need a driftwood fire and a fifth of shine
Mama in the kitchen cookin' chicken fried
Hear the dogs start barking when I pull up
Yeah, it's been a minute since they've seen my truck
I need a Saturday night on the riverbank
Small town Sunday mornin' saving grace
A little heaven on dirt getaway to save my soul
So don't let me down, home

You're the one town I can count on
The one my great granddaddy broke ground on
Where they'll lay me down when I'm just a name on a grave stone
The one I'm talking 'bout when my mama stays singin' these songs
Yeah

I need a driftwood fire and a fifth of shine
Mama in the kitchen cookin' chicken fried
Hear the dogs start barking when I pull up
Yeah, it's been a minute since they've seen my truck
I need a Saturday night on the riverbank
Small town Sunday mornin' saving grace
A little heaven on dirt getaway to save my soul
So don't let me down, home
Don't let me down, home

I need a driftwood fire and a fifth of shine
Mama in the kitchen cookin' chicken fried
Hear the dogs start barking when I pull up
Yeah, it's been a minute since they've seen my truck
I need a Saturday night on the riverbank
Small town Sunday mornin' saving grace
A little heaven on dirt getaway to save my soul
So don't let me down, home
Don't let me down, home
