Lyric Sheet
CITY BOY - COUNTRY MAN
(From the city....to the country)
My friends think I?m crazy, They think I?m quite insane
They don?t understand this great big change.
I?ve traded in my wing tip shoes,
I?m breakin? in a pair of cowboy boots
(Chorus)
From a city boy, to a country man,
my life has had change, a change of plan
I want to be a country man.
Now I?m not ashamed of who I am
I?m a city boy born and bread
But I just met a country girl and she turned my head.
She sits a horse (does she fish) Of course
If you see her there?s no mystery
(Chorus)
She makes a city boy, want to be a country man,
That?s why I?ve had change, a change of plan
I want to be a country man
(8 bar Instrumental break)
Parking fine, wait in line, high crime,
That ain?t the way its suppose to be
Clean air, neighbors share, people treat you fair
Can?t you see, can?t you see
Why a city boy, wants to be a country man
Are you a city boy, then get down to the country man
Listen my friend take no pity on me,
I was raised in the city but now I?m free
Got a girl, got a horse, got a dog, and some friends.
Got the whole sky above me livin? like God intends.
I?m a city boy, headin? for the country
