Country Livin’

There’s an old fashioned country way of livin'\nThere’s an old country way to greet a friend\nI’m shakin' off the shackles of this big town\nAnd I’m headin' for the country ways again\nThere’s an old fashioned country way of singin'\nSongs that are truthful and worthwhile\nSongs of the life we live together\nOh I mean to say we call it country style\nThere’s an old fashioned country way of playin'\nWithout the pomp and style of any star\nIt’s what we call a good old get together\nStringin' with a pick 'n strum guitar — oh yeah\nOh you can’t beat a good old country barn dance\nThey come for miles up and down the line\nAnd if they feel like dancin' until daylight\nOh well no-one seems to care about the time\nOh there’s mateship in a good old country bar room\nFor everyone knows everybody else\nAnd as you laugh and listen to the dirty stories\nAnd maybe throw a few around yourself\nSo you ask me city friend, why I am leavin'\nTo share again the droughts and floods and strife\nYou ask me why I’m singin' country music\nWell country music, friend, is a way of life\nThere’s an old fashioned country way of livin'\nThere’s an old country way to greet a friend\nThough fame and wealth may never be extended\nYour wealth is in the hearts of your dear friends\nThere’s an old fashioned country way of livin'\nThere’s an old country way to greet a friend\nI’m shakin' off the shackles of this big town\nAnd I’m headin' for the country ways again\nYeah, headin' for the country ways again
