Livin?in the city
Aint never been my idea of gettin?it on
But the job demands that you make new plans
Before your big chance is gone

You get a house in the hills
Youre payin?everyones bills
And they tell you that youre gonna go far
But in the back of my mind,
I hear it time after time,
Is that who you really are??

Country boy, you got your feet in LA,
But your minds on Tennessee
Lookin?back, I can remember the time
When I sang my songs for free
Country boy, you got your feet in LA
Take a look at everything you own
But now and then, my heart keeps goin?home

Talkin?on the telephone,
Settin?up another day of people to meet
Youve gotta do whats right,
Youve gotta spend the night,
Stayin?in touch with the street
When youre surrounded by friends,
They say the fun never ends,
But I guess Ill never figure it out
Cause in the back of my mind,
I hear it time after time,
Is this what its all about??

Country boy, you got your feet in LA,
But your minds on Tennessee
Lookin?back, I can remember the time
When I sang my songs for free
Country boy, you got your feet in LA
Take a look at everything you own
But now and then, my heart keeps goin?home
