Now That's Country

Ridin' twenty miles on a midnight train Just to go fishin' in the pourin' rain Take along your baby, just 'cause you're in love Fishin' and lovin': I can't get enough Well, that's country I was raised a country child Now, that's country Baby, that's my style Got me a pick-up I got a piece-of-nothin' farm Shotgun and a hound dog I got a tractor in the barn Rockin' chair on my front porch And a jug of home-made wine When I ain't makin' music That's how I spend my time Well, that's country I was born, yes, a country child Now, that's country But, baby, that's my style You know every man and woman Ought to have a place to lay their burdens down You all can do it in that city But it ain't the same in a big old town Now, me, just talk to y'all one time Have you ever laid in a field of clover Late into the night And watched a shooting star fall from heaven Till the moon fades outta sight? Get up and go visitin' That's just what neighbors do I'm proud to be from the country Now, how about you? Oh, that's country I was raised on that Mississippi mile Now, that's country But, baby, that's my style Well, that's country Guess I was born a country child Now that's country And, baby, that's my style Oh
