Lyrics

CHORUS
You know I gotta go,
Where the tall grass sways and the fireflies glow,
Yo-ho, a country life for me,

Planting roots deep in this land,
Where the oak trees grow and the stars still dance,
Yo-ho, a country life for me,

VERSE 1
(I) Used to have a condo in a high rise,
Now I got a cabin by the lakeside,
Left behind the desk job and long lines,
For a place that works on my time,

PRE CHORUS 1
Got no concrete under my shoes,
I’m makin’ my own rules,

VERSE 2
I found a place that won’t confine me,
Let’s me breathe, sets my mind free,
I won’t miss the wine or charcuterie,
I’ll take a low country boil and some sweet tea,

PRE CHORUS 2
Everything is feeling alright,
And I’m doing fine,

CHORUS
‘Cause you know I gotta go,
Where the tall grass sways and the fireflies glow,
Yo-ho, a country life for me,

Planting roots deep in this land,
Where the oak trees grow and the stars still dance,
Yo-ho, a country life for me,



BRIDGE
‘Round here, I’m assured of something greater,
And life is less dramatic,
‘Round here, I know all my neighbors,
And I’d rather get stuck in the mud, than in traffic, let’s go!

MUSIC SOLO

PRE CHORUS 3
Ain’t got no concrete under my shoes,
I’m makin’ my own rules,

CHORUS
You know I gotta go,
Where the tall grass sways and the fireflies glow,
Yo-ho, a country life for me,

Planting roots deep in this land,
Where the tall oaks grow and the stars still dance,
Yo-ho, a country life for me,
Yo-ho, a country life for me!
