Goin To the Country
Martin Sexton

There's a warm wind blowin' over from the west again todaynWith it comes that message sent from so far awaynDrags that longing feeling from my heart down to my sleevenTells me that it's been too long and it's been time to leavenSo I bought a pickup truck with three shades of orangenAnd two shades of rusted bluenWent down to pick up my last paycheck from my bossnAnd I told him what he could donI rode down to my mama said mama my time has come to ridenShe said boy don't let the screen door slam your ass on the way outsidennNow I'm goin' to the country for whilenGoin' where they speak in terms of country milesnGoin' to the country was there something I should know before I gonnA sweet hitchhiker stopped me on this olden country roadnShe hopped into my pickup in her cutoff jeans and she so kindly said hellonHer blue eyes smiled as she said my destination is unknownnShe said she left her city standing only days agonjust to call the world her homenAnd then she turned up my radionI said we're goin' to the country for whilenWe're goin' where the grass is green and the people always smilennGoin' to the coutnry was there something I should know before I gonLife was ordinary boring lamenAll my dreams held captive on that ratrace of a cagenSweet the sound surrender to my earsnThe winds of change have blown them all awaynjust for todaynnI'm goin' to the country for a whilenI'm goin' where they speak in terms of corn and country milesnMe and my baby we're goin' to the countrynBecause the earth is getting deep fried country stylenMe and my baby we're goin to the countrynPackin' our bags ain't comin' homenNow we're goin' to the country was there somethin' I should knownSomethin' I should know
