in the country - chuck brodsky lyrics

Loading...

i love it in the country
at night you can see stars
you can pull somebody’s leg
& tell ‘em “look, there’s mars”
and they can pull your leg right back
& tell you yeah they know
and that that one there is neptune
yeah that one hanging low

i love it in the country
when people wave h-llo
when you’re driving by them
people you don’t even know
i can’t help but smile
where in the city maybe i could
& as i head on down the road
i can’t help feeling good

i love it in the country
listening to the birds
you sit out there long enough
you start picking out the words
i swear i heard what sounded like
the gettysburg address
from a little lincoln sparrow
with a white patch on its breast

i love it in the country
there’s a different set of laws
where the only answer that you’ll get
sometimes is “just because”
where it’s do unto others
and it’s live & let live
you screw up on that stuff
folks are real slow to forgive

i love it in the country
the things that people say
i might could write a book on it
& i might just will some day
ask a simple question
somebody might bend your ear
you ask for directions
you can’t get there from here

i love it in the country
my neighbor raises sheep
pigs & cows & chickens
on a hillside where it’s steep
at night you ought to hear it
when the bulls have been let out
i lay in my bed thinking
how i’m glad i’m not a cow

and how i love it in the country
at night you can see stars
you can pull somebody’s leg
& tell ‘em “look, there’s mars”
