Dave Dudley - Big Country Lyrics

From a hill I look down at the lights of a town that lured me and trapped me a while

But I broke away now I'm on my way so happy carefree like a child

Headed for my big country

Well I need lots of room so I'll follow that moon

Driftin' there in the star-studded sea

Over trails that are strange to that far mountain range

Where the tall timber beckons to me out there in my big country

There's someone out there and I know that she cares

The big country holds all my dreams

With a love that I know pure as new fallen snow

And as fresh as a cool mountain stream

Well I can hardly wait till I stand at the gate oh I've been away now so long

When her arms open wide and I step inside

I'll be home and that's where I belong out here in my big country

[ piano ]

There's someone out there...
