Going To The Country
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Look Out the Window, What Do I See?
Cows Hangin' Out Under Spreading Trees.
Zoom! They're Gone Behind the Sign
White Letters Pointing to the Long White Line
And I'm Going to the Country
O, La La La La La
I'm Going to the Country
Sunshine Smile On Me
I Can Smell the Grass Growing in the Field
Wind in My Hair Tells Me How It Feels
Farm House, Silver Roof Flashing By
Tractor-trailer Truck Says Goodbye With a Sigh
And I'm Going to the Country
O, La La La La La
I'm Going to the Country
Sunshine Smile On Me
Birds Singing, I'm Singing in My Bones
Doesn't Much Matter Now Where I'm Going
Get It When I Get There Is What I'll Do
If I Get Enough I'll Give Some to You
And I'm Going to the Country
O, Happy As Can Be
I'm Going to the Country
Sunshine Smile On Me
