Well this big city life is gettin' me down There's just too many people around There's dirt in the air and crime in the street High-rise buildings and cold concrete This rat race sure enough takes a toll I wanna run off to my fishin' hole Take me back take me back Take me back to the country Take me back take me back Take me back to the country
Where the stars at night Outshine those city lights Take me back to the country Where the eagles fly And the treetops touch the sky Take me back to the country
This traffic jam is makin' me mad I miss the simple life I had Peace and quite runnin' free I wanna go home to my family I'm sick of the clock, sick of the phone Out in the country my time's my own Take me back take me back Take me back to the country Take me back take me back Take me back to the country
Where the stars at night Outshine those city lights Take me back to the country Where the eagles fly And the treetops touch the sky Take me back to the country
Where the stars at night Outshine those city lights Take me back to the country Where the eagles fly And the treetops touch the sky Take me back to the country Take me back to the country
