Country Boy (You Got Your Feet In L.A.)
Living in the city
Ain't never been my idea of getting it on
But the job demands that you make new plans
Before your big chance is gone
You get a house in the hills
You're paying everyone's bills
And they tell you that you're gonna go far
But in the back of my mind
I hear it time after time
Is that who you really are?
Country boy
You got your feet in L.A.
But your mind's on Tennessee
Looking back, I can remember the time
When I sang my songs for free
Country boy
You got your feet in L.A.
Take a look at everything you own
But now and then
My heart keeps going home
Talking on the telephone
Setting up another day of people to meet
You've gotta do what's right
You've gotta spend the night
Staying in touch with the street
When you're surrounded by friends
They say the fun never ends
But I guess I'll never figure it out
'Cause in the back of my mind
I hear it time after time
Is this what it's all about?
Country boy
You got your feet in L.A.
But your mind's on Tennessee
Looking back, I can remember the time
That I sang my songs for free
Country boy
You got your feet in L.A.
Take a look at everything you own
But now and then
My heart keeps going home
Country boy
You got your feet in L.A.
But your mind's on Tennessee
Looking back, I can remember the time
When I sang my songs for free
Country boy
You got your feet in L.A.
Take a look at everything you own
But now and then
Ain't never been my idea of getting it on
But the job demands that you make new plans
Before your big chance is gone
You get a house in the hills
You're paying everyone's bills
And they tell you that you're gonna go far
But in the back of my mind
I hear it time after time
Is that who you really are?
Country boy
You got your feet in L.A.
But your mind's on Tennessee
Looking back, I can remember the time
When I sang my songs for free
Country boy
You got your feet in L.A.
Take a look at everything you own
But now and then
My heart keeps going home
Talking on the telephone
Setting up another day of people to meet
You've gotta do what's right
You've gotta spend the night
Staying in touch with the street
When you're surrounded by friends

But I guess I'll never figure it out
'Cause in the back of my mind

Country boy
You got your feet in L.A.
But your mind's on Tennessee
Looking back, I can remember the time
That I sang my songs for free
Country boy
You got your feet in L.A.
Take a look at everything you own
But now and then
My heart keeps going home
Country boy
You got your feet in L.A.
But your mind's on Tennessee
Looking back, I can remember the time
When I sang my songs for free
Country boy
You got your feet in L.A.
Take a look at everything you own
But now and then
