I've got these back country blues
That remind me of you
We'd lay under stars and
We'd stare at the moon
And the good times
Didn't seem so far away
Now you're a big city girl
With a big city plan
A big city job and
A big city man
And I hope now
You've finally found your place
'Cause when you danced here with me
And we sang out of key
You felt out of touch
With all that you'd see
And you told me
You had big big plans
Ooh Emma Leigh
Ooh Emma Leigh
Yeah you're a big city girl
Under big city lights
This back country town
Just don't feel right
Without you
And I'm writing you now
Cause I've only got weeks
They say that I'm sick
And I'm dying to see
All those big plans
You finally made come true
Ooh Emma Leigh
Ooh Emma Leigh
Ooh Emma Leigh
Ooh Emma Leigh
I've got these back country blues
That remind me of you
We'd lay under stars and
We'd stare at the moon
And I'd wonder
What's wrong with me
