Country Life

The corn keeps growing taller every day Cut a maze through the stalks for the kids to play Me and you in the hammock gently we sway This is how we grow in a country kind of way Come out to the country, where dreams are made Come sing me a love song, a sweet serenade Come to me, my darling, you will be amazed Come to my heaven, where families are raised The sun in the sky, gentle breeze in the air All nature's beauty, for everyone to share The days are much nicer, the nights all are clear Out in the country, all our cares disappear Come out to the country, where dreams are made Come sing me a love song, a sweet serenade Come to me, my darling, you will be amazed Come to my heaven, where families are raised No smog in the air, just smoke from our bonfire No phones or electricity disrupting our choir All it takes to live, is love for life and desire Out in the country where our corn grows higher
