Think I'll pack it up
And load up the car
Leave it all, leave it all
Leave it for a few days
I know a place
A house up by the lake
Won't you please let me
Let me show you the way?
No, I don't need to take much with me
Plain and simple and I want to feel free
Find me lying in the shade of the willow tree
Baby, I just need to leave
Rattle the keys
And you know I'm ready to go
Life in the city, seems I'm always falling behind
Then there's the people
Moving so damn quickly
You know they wouldn't ever loan you a dime
No, I don't need to take much with me
Plain and simple and I want to feel free
Find me lying in the shade of the willow tree
Baby, I just need to leave
I wanna move up the country
Get away from here
I wanna move up the country
Mama, don't you shed a tear
I wanna move up the country
A place I always hold dear
I wanna move up the country
Get away from here
Get away, get away from here
I wanna move up the country
Get away from here
I wanna move up the country
Mama, don't you shed a tear
I wanna move up the country
A place I always hold dear
I wanna move up the country
Get away from here
Get away, get away from here
