Lyrics

Well this big city life is gettin' me down there's just too many people around
There's dirt in the air and crime in the street high rise buildings and cold concrete
This rat race sure enough takes a toll I wanna run off to my fishin' hole
Take me back take me back take me back to the country
Take me back take me back take me back to the country

Where the stars at night outshine those city lights
Take me back to the country
Where the eagles fly and the treetops touch the sky
Take me back to the country

This traffic jam is a making me mad I miss the simple life I had
Peace and quiet running free I wanna go home to my family
I'm sick of the clock sick of the phone out in the country my time's my own
Take me back take me back to the country take me back to the country

Where the stars at night outshine..
To the country oh take me boy
[ guitar ]
Where the stars at night outshine..
