rate me

(allen collins - ronnie vanzant)<br><br>New york city is a thousand miles away<br>And if you ask me, I'll tell you that's ok<br>Now I'm not trying to put the big apple down<br>'cause they don't need a man like me in town<br>I pick cotton down on the dixie line<br>Work hard all day tryin' to make a dime<br>But that's allright, that's ok by me<br>'cause that's the way that it was meant to be<br><br>Big city, hard times don't bother me<br>I'm a country boy, I'm as happy as I can be<br><br>I don't like smoke chokin' up my air<br>And some of those city folks well they don't care<br>I don't like cars buzzing around<br>I don't even want a piece of concrete in my town<br>I like sunshine, fresh clean air<br>Makes me feel like you wouldn't care but<br>That's all right, each to his own<br>But one smell from the city<br>And this country boy is gone<br>Big city, hard times don't bother me<br>I'm a country boy, I'm as happy as I can be<br><br>Well, I don't want to even read about it<br><br>Let me tell you something, let me tell you true<br>What's right for me might not be right for you<br>Well, you live your way, I'll live mine<br>And I hope that your happy all the time<br>I pick cotton down on the dixie line<br>Work hard all day tryin' to make a dime<br>But that's all right, that's ok by me<br>'cause that's the way that it was supposed to be<br><br>Big city, hard times never bother me<br>I'm a country boy, I'm as happy as I can be<br><br>Let me tell ya, ... I said<br>Big city, hard times never bother me<br>I'm a country boy, I'm as happy as I can be<br>Ooh, that's my way, baby<br>I don't want you to even tell me about the big city<br>I don't want to read about it...
