Country Home

I've been around
A few of your towns
I made some friends
And we drank some wine
I've driven back
To a motel or two
Yeah, and I was high as a kite
Stoned out of my mind
Ah yes, I was

I walked your streets
Ate in your greasy spoons
I smiled at folks
Who just passed me by
And I looked for fun
Yeah, and I ended up all alone
And I seen some sad things
I just couldn't cry

I'm going back
Back to my country home
Where life is sweet
And the people still smile
I'll build a house
High on a ridge top there
Where you can breathe
And see for ten miles
Ah yes, you can

I met some girls
I got a whirl or two
And sometimes we laughed
And sometimes we lied
We talked about
The few things we both knew
And in the morning
We said our goodbyes

I'm going back
Back to my country home
Where life is sweet
And the people still smile
And I'll build a house
High on a ridge top there
Where you can breathe
And see for ten miles

Ah yes, you can
God knows you can
