(Karen Staley)

Well this big city life is gettin' me down
|
There's just too many people around
|
There's dirt in the air and crime in the street
|
High-rise buildings and cold concrete
|
This rat race sure enough takes a toll
|
I wanna run off to my fishin' hole
|
Take me back take me back
|
Take me back to the country
|
Take me back take me back
|
Take me back to the country
|
|
Where the stars at night
|
Outshine those city lights
|
Take me back to the country
|
Where the eagles fly
|
And the treetops touch the sky
|
Take me back to the country
|
|
This traffic jam is makin' me mad
|
I miss the simple life I had
|
Peace and quite runnin' free
|
I wanna go home to my family
|
I'm sick of the clock, sick of the phone
|
Out in the country my time's my own
|
Take me back take me back
|
Take me back to the country
|
Take me back take me back
|
Take me back to the country
|
|
Where the stars at night
|
Outshine those city lights
|
Take me back to the country
|
Where the eagles fly
|
And the treetops touch the sky
|
Take me back to the country
|
|
Where the stars at night
|
Outshine those city lights
|
Take me back to the country
|
Where the eagles fly
|
And the treetops touch the sky
|
Take me back to the country
|
Take me back to the country
|
