Country Lovin'

lyrics

Country Lovin’

Well I walked past the barn
And I saw her standing there in the yard
She’d come by to say she ain’t gonna stay
She’s going to the city next month
We were just kids ya we’d barely learned to kiss
Well I wish that she would stay for one more night

Too bad she has got a lover
Too bad she’s as sweet as wine
Too bad I can’t seem to sleep without her now
As time ticks by till I die

Well tried to stay in this town I’s raised in
But it all seemed empty when she went away
All those street signs pointed to a life
I’d lost the moment I chose to stay
I was just a kid ya I feared the city
Where the night sky never darkens ‘nough to see

Chorus

Well I grabbed my stuff and I hopped up in my truck
And I drove on down to Houston where you were
And I knocked on that door prayed to god you’d heard
The message that I left when I left home
You opened up that door and you took my hand in yours
And you said I’m glad you finally came around

Well it seems you got a lover
I always said you’s sweet as wine
I sleep easy now that I am by your side
As time ticks by till I die

about

Wyatt Cropper Parks Bellingham, Washington

As a chronic songwriter things just sort of stack up every so often and I just have to put them out there. My music covers the map from the highly personal to the wacky (favoring the personal though). Please enjoy and share!
