Текст песни Downhome Dreams - Redferrin

I was raised the Lord's to thank for each and every single blessing
Lord knows I've been countin' mine, there ain't no second guessing
After all the things he gave me, sure hate to ask for more
But it ain't fancy things I'm praying for, no

Just a life of love, a wife to kiss
A couple kids, a picket fence
A red brick house, poor trap brown on the edge of a little town
If it's the last thing that I ever ask
Is plenty more good years with dad
I'm pretty sure he'd probably like to see
How a boy like me ends up turnin' out
Chasin' down these downhome dreams
(Chasin' down these downhome dreams)

Used to hope that I go pro, but 18 came, I let that go
I have bills to pay and nothin' saved, so that's the way it goes
But the day I lost my mama was the day that I woke up
Figured out that I don't need that much, no

Just a life of love, a wife to kiss
A couple kids, a picket fence
A red brick house, poor trap brown on the edge of a little town
If it's the last thing that I ever ask
It's plenty more good years with dad
I'm pretty sure he'd probably like to see
How a boy like me ends up turnin' out
Chasin' down these downhome dreams
(Chasin' down these downhome dreams)

Now I lay me down to sleep
Thinkin' 'bout how things will be
When the man upstairs sends one down for me

A life of love, a wife to kiss
Couple kids, a picket fence
A red brick house, poor trap brown on the edge of a little town
If it's the last thing that I ever ask
It's plenty more good years with dad
I'm pretty sure he'd probably like to see
How a boy like me ends up turnin' out
Chasin' down these downhome dreams
(Chasin' down these downhome dreams)

How a boy like me ends up turnin' out
Chasin' down these downhome dreams
