Country Star |
She opened up the letter from Nashville Tennessee |
He said hon they like my music the songs I wrote for you and me |
The boys and me just cut a record and it could hit the charts before too long |
So it’s gonna be a while till I can come back home |
Yes I’m gonna be a country star and everyone will know my name |
Oh you know I love those bright lights when I step on stage to sing |
I’ll be travlin' round the country with a big bus and a band |
So just keep the homefires burnin' while I’m gone |
And I’ll get home when I can |
She said hon I hear your record oh they play it everyday |
And everybody really likes it so I guess your on your way |
But darling please remember we all need you here at home |
And the kids all miss their daddy so don’t be gone too long |
Yes I know that your a country star and everybody knows your name |
And I know you love those bright lights when you step on stage to sing |
Just remember we all love you and don’t get blinded by the light |
We’ll just keep the homefires burnin' while you’re gone |
You know we pray for you each night |
After six long months of goin' I guess the road just finally took its toll |
Cause his songs has lost all meaning and he felt so all alone |
Then one night in Jackson he went out on stage to play |
And the crowd stared at disbelief at the words he had to say |
I don’t want to be a country star it ain’t the way I thought it’d be |
Well it took me such a long time to know that it ain’t the life for me |
Cause the days can get so lonely and the nights can get so long |
Lord I think it’s about time this country star went home |
Yes I think that it’s about time this country boy went home |
