Heart of the Country

I was young and not deceived then

I believed in the heart of the country

How the words sound, how the truth lies

I was moved by the heart of the country

Then I saw through the charade

The facade, now I've had it all

When they ask you, "Who deprives you?"

You reply your heart of the country

I am older, I am wiser

I despise the heart of the country

Then I felt it

All the tears and the grief

I believed it all

Taking bad times by the handful

Do what you can for the heart of the country

They dish the dirt out, hard to swallow

Just to follow the heart of the country

Heed the words and learn the lines

I'll be fine when I have it all

Heart of the country

Heart of the country

Heart of the country

Heart of the country

Heart of the country

Heart of the country

Heart of the country

Heart of the country

Heart of the country
