Down Here

(Verse 1)
Sun on the fields, same as it's always been,
But the news on the radio, it cuts you to the skin.
Folks rushin' by, eyes glued to the ground,
Ain't nobody lookin' up, where hope can be found.

(Chorus)
Lord, the world's gone crazy, spinnin' way too fast,
We're holdin' to the values, that we know will last.
Down here, where the spirit's strong and true,
We still raise our children, like we were taught to do.

(Verse 2)
Tractors in the fields, bibles on the shelf,
Hard work and faith, that's how we build ourselves.
We stand for the anthem, we kneel when we pray,
And we thank the good Lord, for each and every day.

(Chorus)
Lord, the world's gone crazy, spinnin' way too fast,
We're holdin' to the values, that we know will last.
Down here, where the spirit's strong and true,
We still raise our children, like we were taught to do.

(Bridge)
We ain't perfect, but we try to do what's right,
Raise our kids with manners, and teach 'em wrong from right.
Hoping for a future, where respect ain't just a word,
Where the voice of the people, is the one that's always heard.

(Chorus)
Lord, the world's gone crazy, spinnin' way too fast,
We're holdin' to the values, that we know will last.
Down here, the spirit's strong and true,
We still raise our children, like we were taught to do.

(Outro)
Yeah, we're proud to be American, from the mountains to the shore,
Prayin' for a better world, 
Down here, we stand together, with our heads held high,
Underneath the stars and stripes, 'til the day we all die.
