City Vs. Country
|
|
I want to live close to downtown to be near my friends
|
I want to be close to them,
|
And still be out by the trees and the wind
|
Havin' both will be hard to find I'm sure,
|
But then ain't that the way of the world,
|
I want the city but I want the country too.
|
|
I want to be with my friends by the fire and the starlight
|
But I want music, music in my life
|
Yes, I want a bar hoppin' music scene
|
And I want to pick from ten or fifteen
|
I want the city but I want the country too.

|
|
My mind is quiet, when my thoughts are slow
|
I stop to learn what I been wantin' to know
|
I need to live in the ancient world
|
If I'm gonna do what I want to do
|
I want the city but I want the country too
|
|
I'll never have both moon and sun
|
But one never knows, does one?
|
I want the city but I want the country too.
