|
|
Tired of bein' pushed, bumped and turned around
|
Listenin' to the people fightin' next floor down
|
Tryin' to find fresh air to breath, just can't be done, no
|
I gotta get away and get some country sun
|
Look to the sky, the stars are outta sight
|
Hidden by the cloud of the city's might
|
Hear the sirens blowin' all over town
|
Well now, I gotta get away and get some country sound
|
|
Take it slow and take it easy
|
Lots of time for livin'
|
Get out on the road and take a big load off your mind
|
Out in the country
|
Your time's your time
|
And you know that you'll be feelin' right
|
|
------ brief instrumental break ------
|
|
Layin' in grass that's over two feet tall
|
Well now, I'm feelin' good, I'm feelin' clean, I'm feelin' small
|
Breathin' this air can really stone the brain
|
Like bein' lost and findin' your way again
|
Look to the sky, the stars are shinin' bright
|
The smile on the moon just helps to light the night
|
Sittin' doin' nothin' is bad they say - ha!
|
But sittin' here doin' nothin' keeps me busy all day
|
|
Take it slow and take it easy
|
Lots of time for livin'
|
Get out on the road and take a big load off your mind
|
Out in the country
|
Your time's your time out on the road
|
Take a load off your mind
|
Out in the country
|
Your time's your time out on the road
|
Take a load off your mind
|
Out in the country
|
Your time's your time out on the road
|
Take a load off your mind
|
Out in the country
|
