country heart

fast train next plane i don't care

take me and wake me when you get me there

to long in the city trying to play the part

it's just takin' and breakin' this country heart

it's a mean street in concrete in jungle head

it's a forsaking heartaching atmosphere

take me back to where those crystal rivers start

where there's space for a place for this country heart

i'm headin' south on the first train out

does someone have a ticket to sale

i'll hit the tracks and i won't come back

so big city farewell hotels and traffic jams

and hello old crow and country hen

blue sky golden fields and crickets after dark

they are callin' callin' this country heart

they're callin' callin' this country heart
