[Intro] Well I was raised out in the country Just outside a real small town And just like any other young boy All my life I dreamed of gettin’ out I’ve been down to the city It’s a real nice place to see Well I got too much rebel in me I gotta be somewhere where I can breathe You can take me out of the country Miles from where I wanna be You can take me out of the country But you can’t take the country outta me Hurry home to my woman Big blue eyes and long blonde hair And we’ll make love way until mornin’ And tell the world I don’t care You can take me out of the country Miles from where I wanna be You can take me out of the country But you can’t take the country outta me You can take me out of the country Miles from where I wanna be You can take me out of the country But you can’t take the country outta me You can take me out of the country But you can’t take the country outta me
