The City Put the Country Back in Me |
I was born dirt poor on a dead end country road |
My every dream was to just grow up and go |
Like a siren song those bright lights called my name |
So I turned that country road into memory lane |
Well I hit that fast lane it was paved with gold |
But it wasn’t long 'til my highbrow ways got old |
I started missing things that I thought I’d left behind |
'Til I found two swinging doors 'neath the neon sign |
They were whirling and a twirling to the fiddles and a steel guitar |
Them city folk was drinking from Mason jars |
I think I found what paradise might be |
The city put the country back in me |
When you leave the farm you don’t have to leave your room |
Just go on home and slip on them cowboy boots |
Now it’s the best of both worlds all I’ll ever need |
The city put the country back in me |
They were whirling and a twirling to the fiddles and a steel guitar |
Them city folk was drinking from Mason jars |
I think I found what paradise might be |
The city put the country back in me |
Yeah the city put the country back in me |
