Lyrics

TOO MUCH COUNTRY
by Jim Garrett/Terri Fann

Verse 1: Down by the river the cows are mooin'
Ducks are quackin', doves are cooin'
The coffee's brewin', the biscuits bakin'
And the sun is barely up

Verse 2: Out in the barn, they're squawkin' for breakfast
Hogs are gruntin', chickens gettin' restless
My pants'll get torn, pitchin' hay, spreadin' corn
But getting' up and goin' first thing in the mornin', that's what I call fun

Chorus: When it's too much country for anybody else
It's just right for me
Wanna-be cowpokes, pretty boys, and city folks
Just don't see what I see
When I look out on the land, I realize how lucky I am
'Cause too much country
Is just right for me

Verse 3: Movin' those cattle through cactus and cowpies
Tractor runnin' through hayfields waist-high
Fillin' up feed troughs, shooing them flies off
Proud to be a working man, loving every minute that, I'm where I belong

Repeat Chorus

Bridge: And just when I need a slow down
My baby comes around
Says meet me at the pond downstream
For fishin', kissin', and skinny dippin' (wee doggies! splash!)

Repeat Chorus 2X

Tag: When it's too much country for anybody else
It's just right for me
