|
Livin' in the city |
|
Ain't never been my idea of gettin' it on |
|
But the job demands that you make new plans |
|
Before your big chance is gone |
|
You get a house in the hills |
|
You're payin' everyone's bills |
|
And they tell you that you're gonna go far |
|
But in the back of my mind |
|
I hear it time after time |
|
"Is that who you really are?" |
|
Country boy, you got your feet in L.A. |
|
But your mind's on Tennessee |
|
Lookin' back, I can remember the time |
|
When I sang my songs for free |
|
Country boy, you got your feet in L.A. |
|
Take a look at everything you own |
|
But now and then, my heart keeps goin' home |
|
Talkin' on the telephone |
|
Settin' up another day of people to meet |
|
You've gotta do what's right |
|
You've gotta spend the night |
|
Stayin' in touch with the street |
|
When you're surrounded by friends |
|
They say the fun never ends |
|
But I guess I'll never figure it out |
|
'Cause in the back of my mind |
|
I hear it time after time |
|
"Is this what it's all about?" |
|
Country boy, you got your feet in L.A. |
|
But your mind's on Tennessee |
|
Lookin' back, I can remember the time |
|
When I sang my songs for free |
|
Country boy, you got your feet in L.A. |
|
Take a look at everything you own |
|
But now and then, my heart keeps goin' home |
|
Country boy, you got your feet in L.A. |
|
But your mind's on Tennessee |
|
Lookin' back, I can remember the time |
|
When I sang my songs for free |
|
Country boy, you got your feet in L.A. |
|
Take a look at everything you own |
