Bruce Cockburn Going To The Country Lyrics

Going To The Country Lyrics

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
