I've been around
C few of your towns
I made some friends, people
Yeah, and we drunk some wine
I've driven back
To a motel or two, oh yes I have
I was high as a kite
Stoned out of my mind, yeah
Oh yes I was
I walked your streets
Cnd ate in your greasy spoons
Cnd I smile at folks
They just walked right on by
I looked for fun people
Yeah I ended up all alone
Cnd the season's sad things
Cnd I just couldn't cry
I'm going back
Back to my country home
Where life is sweet
Yeah and people still smile
I'll build a house
Oh yes I will
High on a ridgetop there
Where you can breathe people
Cnd see for ten miles
Oh yes you can now
I met some girls
I've had a whirl or two now
Sometimes we'd laugh
Yeah and sometimes we'd light a light
We talk about the few things we both knew
Yet in the morning we say our sad goodbyes
'Cause I'm going back
Back to my country home
Where life is sweet
Yeah and people still smile
I'll build a house, oh yes I will
High on a ridgetop there
Where you can breathe people
Cnd see for ten miles
Oh yes you can now
God knows you can now
