I lived most of my life – in cities
Bright lights, noise, and faces

My mind thinks bout greener places
And my heart yearns
For wide the wide open spaces

[Chorus] I'll never be able to live my life
With the screaming crowded bustle and the strife
Just bring me down to the country
With the crickets hoot owls and big toads
Oh just wake – me take – me and put my city feet- on a country road

There’s a big house in a prime location
Right across from the main power station
Neighbors so close they can see
Inside my bedroom from their bedroom
Oh Lord

[Chorus] I'll never be able to live my life
With the screaming crowded bustle and the strife
Just bring me down to the country
With the crickets hoot owls and big toads
Oh just wake – me take – me and put my city feet- on a country road

I met a girl she had a place in the country
She Took my heart and changed my location
With the trees and the bees and greenery scenery
Oh it's so nice man it's like I'm on a permanent vacation

[Chorus] I'll never be able to live my life
With the screaming crowded bustle and the strife
Just bring me down to the country
With the crickets hoot owls and big toads
Oh just wake – me take – me and put my city feet- on a country road
