It shouldn't take half an hour to get to the other side of town
There's so much noise in the city it makes my head pound
I miss those open spaces, there's no place like home
Sometimes when I close my eyes, I'm already gone
I want to go back to the country
I want to go where I feel free
I want to hunt in the woods
And fish in my Grandpa's pond
I want to go back to the country
I want to go back where I should be
Where your ground gets stood
And what you say is your bond
I want to go back to the country
When I'm feeling walled in and fresh air is what I need
I take a ride with the truck windows down, so I can breathe
Sitting out on the porch, watching the sunset
Drinking sweet tea with my family is as good as it gets
I want to go back to the country
I want to go where I feel free
I want to hunt in the woods
And fish in my Grandpa's pond
I want to go back to the country
I want to go back where I should be
Where your ground gets stood
And what you say is your bond
I want to go back to the country
I'm going back home to where I love
I'm country proud and I'm country tough
