( Hawshaw/ Gosling)I was born in the country I was raised with the sun The flowers were my pillow When the days work was done Down in the valley Shone bright neon signs The call of the city life Kept going through my mind Oh yeah, the days of my childhood Would soon be left behind It was a Saturday morning The snow lay on the ground Pa said the time had come When I could move to town I kissed goodbye to Mama Held tight to Papa's hand I saw a tear in Mama's eye But I did not understand Cause I was just a country girl Being brought up on the land Goodbye Mama Let me see you smile Wipe away that teardrop from your eye I won't forget that I'm a country girl I've got to go but I hate to say goodbye So long Papa I'll be seeing you but I'll be coming home again someday No I won't forget that I'm a country girl A country girl you know I'll always stay I was born in the country I was raised with the sun The flowers were my pillow When the days work was done Yes I know where I belong I've got my peace of mind I was born a country girl And that just suits me fine Goodbye Mama Let me see you smile Wipe away that teardrop from your eye I won't forget that I'm a country girl I've got to go but I hate to say goodbye So long Papa I'll be seeing you but I'll be coming home again someday No I won't forget that I'm a country girl I'll come back to you someday Believe me A country girl you know I'll always stay...
