Gone Country lyrics Lyrics

Song Lyrics  Gone Country lyrics She s been playing in a room on a strip For ten years in Vegas And every night she looks in the mirror But she only ages She s been reading about Nashville and all The records that everybody s buying Says, "I m a simple girl myself Grew up on long island" So she packs her bags to try to her hand Says, "This might be my last chance" She s gone country, look at them boots She s gone country, back to her roots She s gone country, a new kind of suit She s gone country, here she comes Well the folk scene is dead But he s holding out in the village He s been writing songs speaking out Against wealth and privilege He says, "I don t believe in money But a man could make him a killin " Cause some of that stuff don t sound Much different than Dylan I hear down there it s changed you see They re not as backwards as they used to be He s gone country, look at them boots He s gone country, back to her roots He s gone country, a new kind of suit He s gone country, here he comes He commutes to L.A. But he s got a house in the valley But the bills are piling up And the pop scene just ain t on the rally And he says, "Honey I m a serious composer Schooled in voice and composition" But with the crime and the smog these days This ain t no place for children Lord, it sounds so easy, it shouldn t take long Be back in the money in no time at all He s gone country, look at them boots He s gone country, back to her roots He s gone country, a new kind of suit He s gone country, here he comes Yeah, he s gone country, a new kind of walk He s gone country, a new kind of talk He s gone country, look at them boots He s gone country, oh, back to his roots He s gone country He s gone country Everybody s gone country Yeah we ve gone country The whole world s gone country Song Lyrics
