Co-written by Tate Howell, Rian Ball, and Cameron Bedell, the song is about Allen's father.^[3] "Down Home" has made the Country Airplay chart.^[4] Allen announced the album's release in May 2022, and indicated that it would contain collaborations with Jennifer Lopez and CeeLo Green.^[5] According to an interview with CMT, Allen considered every track to be reflective of a personal experience in his life. The last track, "You Won't Be Alone", features Allen's son Aadyn.^[6]

Critical reception

Buddy Iahn of The Music Universe stated that "the album’s title is deeply personal to Allen’s family ties – Tulip Drive is the name of the street his late grandmother grew up on".^[2]

Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic rated the album three stars out of five, stating that "generally, Tulip Drive is operating on cruise control on a suburban street: it's a smooth ride but kind of dull."^[1]
