My heart's in the country and I'm going back
|
My name is on the sign up front in flashing pretty lights
|
Hundreds of people pay to see me every night
|
And after each show they beg me for my autograph
|
They all think I'm happy oh what a laugh
|
Yes my heart's in the country on a farm in Ohio
|
With my mama and daddy and the only friends I know
|
There's a strange different yearning for a farm boy named Jack
|
Yes my heart's in the country and I'm going back
|
|
Oh I've had my fill of the big towns and all the glaring neon lights
|
I'd give anything to sit by daddy's fireplace late tonight
|
And just once more if I could hear him play some old tune on his violin
|
There'll be no show for me tonight cause I'm going home again
|
Yes my heart's in the country...
|
Yes my heart's in the country now I'm going back
|
