"Down Home Town" is song written by Electric Light Orchestra. This is track number 7 from their 1975 album, Face The Music. The song's intro fades slowly into a country song, with the refrain from the earlier track in the album, Waterfall. "Face the mighty waterfall, face the mighty waterfall...". It can be heard in the background during the chorus of "Waterfall".
Out of all the songs on the album, this song appears more country like than the rest of them. For example: In the song's title, it mentions town, not city; the string instruments play as if in the country. This song has not been released as a single or b-sides but has appeared on several compilation albums.
