"Going To The Country" lyrics

"Going To The Country"

Goin' to the country
Get a little lonely in my mind
Feeling kinda funky
Need to find peace among the pines
No I'm not a junkie
But I get high from time to time
No I'm not a junkie
But I get high and bide my time

Goin' to the country
Pull my hat down off the shelf
Need a little somethin'
That I can hold onto myself
Hear a little thunder
Guess it's time we bid farewell
Hear a little thunder
Chase it like a dog, I think I will
Chase it like a dog, I think I will

And it's clear that you can't see
You were wrong sometimes
And it's clear that you can't see
You were wrong sometimes

Goin' to the country
Couple of acres in a beat up Ford
Do a little runnin'
Reminisce and let the days unfold
Couldn't get what I wanted
So I cut out down along that road
Finally get what I wanted
Hey darlin' think I'm almost gone
Hey darlin' think I'm almost gone

And it's clear that you can't see
You were wrong sometimes
And it's clear that you can't see
You were wrong sometimes

And it's clear that you can't see
You were wrong sometimes
And baby it's clear that you can't see
You were wrong, oh, sometimes
Sometimes
