I've been gone for so long
It's sure goot now to get back home
Back to those familiar faces
Smilin right back to me
There's a rainbow in the sky
A certain twinkle in their eyes
They believe in what I have
And what I'm supposed to be
Chorus
Don't it make you wanna dance?
Don't it make you wanna smile?
When you're down, down, down in the country
Pick and sing a while
Oh lord, feels so right
To sit and pick by the campfire light
Playin tunes, just a feelin my freedom
Comin right back again
You look around as you pick your song
Everybody's grinnin, just playin along
And when the chorus comes around
Everybody's joinin in
Chorus x 2 ("singin don't it make ya ")
When you're down, down, down in the country
Pick and sing a while
