Im a Country Boy — текст песни (Lynyrd Skynyrd)

(allen collins - ronnie vanzant)



New york city is a thousand miles away

And if you ask me, Ill tell you thats ok

Now Im not trying to put the big apple down

cause they dont need a man like me in town

I pick cotton down on the dixie line

Work hard all day tryin to make a dime

But thats allright, thats ok by me

cause thats the way that it was meant to be



Big city, hard times dont bother me

Im a country boy, Im as happy as I can be



I dont like smoke chokin up my air

And some of those city folks well they dont care

I dont like cars buzzing around

I dont even want a piece of concrete in my town

I like sunshine, fresh clean air

Makes me feel like you wouldnt care but

Thats all right, each to his own

But one smell from the city

And this country boy is gone

Big city, hard times dont bother me

Im a country boy, Im as happy as I can be



Well, I dont want to even read about it



Let me tell you something, let me tell you true

Whats right for me might not be right for you

Well, you live your way, Ill live mine

And I hope that your happy all the time

I pick cotton down on the dixie line

Work hard all day tryin to make a dime

But thats all right, thats ok by me

cause thats the way that it was supposed to be





Big city, hard times never bother me

Im a country boy, Im as happy as I can be



Let me tell ya, ... I said

Big city, hard times never bother me

Im a country boy, Im as happy as I can be

Ooh, thats my way, baby

I dont want you to even tell me about the big city

I dont want to read about it...
