Wet Willie - Country Side Of Life lyrics

rate me

You can have your buildings and your heavy arithmetic<br />

I don't need no crowded streets or city slicker tricks<br />

I just need to be someplace where I can move around<br />

Look down at my toes and I can still see the ground<br />

<br />

Gimme that country side of life<br />

Which way I can stretch out right<br />

Gimme the countryside ooh lord<br />

That country side of life<br />

Which way I don't get uptight<br />

Gimme the countryside<br />

<br />

I'm going down to the fishing pond where I can throw my line<br />

It don't matter what fish I catch I only wanna rest my mind<br />

The only fish you get downtown ain't caught with a hook and sinker<br />

Put on your brakes beep beep honk your horn look out now turn on your blinker<br />

<br />

Gimme that country side of life<br />

Which way I can stretch out right<br />

Gimme the countryside oh<br />

That country side of life<br />

Which way I don't get uptight<br />

Gimme the countryside<br />

<br />

I was born in a Georgia town with a natural lazy streak<br />

Laid back lovers just playing their games and staying off their feet<br />

Nobody trying to get on your nerves or trying to get what you got<br />

Live and let live by the golden rule now don't it just hit the spot<br />

<br />

Gimme that country side of life<br />

Which way I can stretch out right<br />

Gimme the countryside ooh lord<br />

That country side of life<br />

Which way I don't get uptight<br />

Gimme the countryside<br />

<br />

Gimme that country side of life<br />

Which way I can stretch out right<br />

Gimme the countryside ooh lord<br />

That country side of life<br />

Which way I don't get uptight<br />

Gimme the countryside</
