Goin' down to Muscle Shoals where the swamp water rhythm flows
|
Live the only way I know I'm just a common man
|
Headed down to Texas way where the honky tonk heroes play
|
Gonna find that lost highway that's where I'll make a stand
|
|
Takin' the country back it's high time we face the facts
|
Heart and soul slippin' through the cracks we're takin' the country back
|
Takin' the country back we're not sure just where it's at
|
We've got to get it back on track we're takin' the country back
|
[ guitar ]
|
Bright lights and limousines fame and fortune I have seen
|
Still searchin' for that dream it's callin' me back home
|
Down to earth where the music's real singin' bout what the people feel
|
Timeless truth now that's the deal we got to pass in on y'all
|
|
Yeah takin' the country back...
|
[ steel ]
|
Yeah takin' the country back...
|
Takin' the country on back
|
