Country Girl

New York is a long way from Texas Vegas is a long way from Abilene

I spend lots of my time flying out to LA

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

I go walking down a country road at sunset

And see colors I could almost touch over head

I'd hear gentle breeze is blowing at the treetops

No out in the country there is no talk that God is dead

Oh what I'd give to be

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