"Country House" lyrics

Bible by the bed, double barrel by the door
Chickens on the rooftop, hickory on the floor, oh
Down a little dirt road out here
Somewhere where the sunshine shines

Where you can let your hair down and I can ride some squares 'round
Our own little fresh patch of beans
And I can run my bird dogs, cut the grass with my shirt off and
Swim in an old pair of jeans, baby

I wanna live in a country house, in a country house with you
I want a stove full of wood and coal on a hill with a heavenly view
Where the days are longer and our love gets stronger
And the grass is a little bit blue
Cutting wood for the whittle of it - out in the middle of the country
In a country house with you, you
Ooh-ooh

Raise a little Cain, raise a bunch of kids
Do it like my daddy did, like his daddy did, oh
Drying all our clothes in the fresh air
Go down by the creek just sit there

Where you can let your hair down and, I can ride some squares 'round
Our own little fresh patch of beans
And I can run my bird dogs, cut the grass with my shirt off
And swim in an old pair of jeans, baby

I wanna live in a country house, in a country house with you
I want a stove full of wood and coal on a hill with a heavenly view
Where the days are longer and our love gets stronger
And the grass is a little bit blue
Cutting wood for the whittle of it - out in the middle of the country
In a country house with you

We'll put a welcome on the mat and a screen on the door
Little blue light buzzing hanging on the front porch
Waking up with you - praying every night
That I'll be here tomorrow till the day I die

I wanna live in a country house, in a country house with you
I want a stove full of wood and coal on a hill with a heavenly view
Where the days are longer and our love gets stronger
And the grass is a little bit blue
Cutting wood for the whittle of it - out in the middle of the country
In a country house with you, you
Ooh-ooh
