Lyrics The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Going Up the Country

Going up to the country, baby do you wanna go

Going up to the country, tell me do you wanna go

We're going to some place that we've never been before

We're going, we're going where the water tastes like wine

We're going, we're going where the water tastes like wine

Gonna jump in that the water, and stay there all the time

Gonna leave the city, got to get away

Gonna leave the city, got to get away

All that fussing and fighting man, you know we sure can't stay

So baby pack your leaving trunk we got to get away

Just exactly where we're going you know I cannot say,

But we might even see the USA (in a Chevrolet)

It's a brand new game you know I want to play

No use of you running, screaming and crying

You got a home girl, long as I got mine
