Country Girl

Country Girl - Jeannie C.Riley

New York is a long way from Texas

Vegas is a long way from Abilene

I spend lots of my time flying out to L A

And if you've never been there you don't know

How lonesome big towns can be

Oh what I'd give to be a country girl again

To be with my people my man and my kids

To live in a house about

A mile down the road from mama's

Oh Lord what I'd give to be a country girl again

To go walking down a country road at sunset

And see colors you can almost touch right over head

To hear the gentle breeze

Pips

A blowing to the treetops

No out in the country there

Is no talk that God is dead

Oh what I'd give to be a country girl again

To be with my people my man and my kids

To live in a house about

A mile down the road from mama's

Oh Lord what I'd give to be a country girl again

Oh what I'd give to be a country girl again
