Country Side Of Life |
You can have your buildings and your heavy arithmetic |
I don’t need no crowded streets or city slicker tricks |
I just need to be someplace where I can move around |
Look down at my toes and I can still see the ground |
Gimme that country side of life |
Which way I can stretch out right |
Gimme the countryside ooh lord |
That country side of life |
Which way I don’t get uptight |
Gimme the countryside |
I’m going down to the fishing pond where I can throw my line |
It don’t matter what fish I catch I only wanna rest my mind |
The only fish you get downtown ain’t caught with a hook and sinker |
Put on your brakes beep beep honk your horn look out now turn on your blinker |
Gimme that country side of life |
Which way I can stretch out right |
Gimme the countryside oh That country side of life |
Which way I don’t get uptight |
Gimme the countryside |
I was born in a Georgia town with a natural lazy streak |
Laid back lovers just playing their games and staying off their feet |
Nobody trying to get on your nerves or trying to get what you got |
Live and let live by the golden rule now don’t it just hit the spot |
Gimme that country side of life |
Which way I can stretch out right |
Gimme the countryside ooh lord |
That country side of life |
Which way I don’t get uptight |
Gimme the countryside |
Gimme that country side of life |
Which way I can stretch out right |
Gimme the countryside ooh lord |
That country side of life |
Which way I don’t get uptight |
Gimme the countryside |
