[00:15.74] She's been playin' in a room on the Strip
[00:18.86] For ten years in Vegas
[00:20.80]
[00:23.35] Every night she looks in the mirror
[00:26.43] And she only ages
[00:28.39]
[00:30.95] She's been readin' about Nashville and all
[00:33.00] The records that everybody's buyin'
[00:36.05]
[00:38.34] Says 'I'm a simple girl myself
[00:40.68]
[00:41.49] Grew up on Long Island'
[00:43.48]
[00:46.23] So she packs her bags to try to her hand
[00:50.29] Says "This might be my last chance"
[00:53.48] She's gone country, look at them boots
[00:57.52] She's gone country, back to her roots
[01:01.21] She's gone country, a new kind of suit
[01:05.02] She's gone country, here she comes
[01:08.97]
[01:16.83] Well the folk scene is dead
[01:19.01] But he's holdin' out in the village
[01:22.61]
[01:24.24] He's been writin' songs speakin' out
[01:26.75] Against wealth and privilege
[01:29.31]
[01:32.05] He says "I don't believe in money
[01:34.17] But a man could make him a killin'
[01:36.92]
[01:39.91] 'Cause some of that stuff don't sound
[01:42.72] Much different than Dylan
[01:44.55]
[01:47.54] I hear down there it's changed you see
[01:51.51] They're not as backward as they used to be"
[01:54.75] He's gone country, look at them boots
[01:58.56] He's gone country, back to his roots
[02:02.13] He's gone country, a new kind of suit
[02:06.00] He's gone country, here he comes
[02:10.18]
[02:25.40] Well, he commutes to LA
[02:27.21]
[02:27.73] But he's got a house in the Valley
[02:30.10]
[02:33.19] But the bills are pilin' up
[02:35.19] And the pop scene just ain't on the rally
[02:37.63]
[02:40.58] And he says "Honey I'm a serious composer
[02:42.95] Schooled in voice and composition
[02:45.82]
[02:48.32] But with the crime and the smog these days
[02:51.13] This ain't no place for children
[02:53.38]
[02:55.93] Lord it sounds so easy it shouldn't take long
[03:00.18] Be back in the money in no time at all"
[03:03.54] He's gone country, look at them boots
[03:07.06] He's gone country, back to his roots
[03:10.94] He's gone country, a new kind of suit
[03:14.76] He's gone country, here he comes
[03:18.96]
[03:26.07] Yeah, he's gone country, a new kind of walk
[03:30.50] He's gone country, a new kind of talk
[03:34.25] He's gone country, look at them boots
[03:38.05] He's gone country, oh back to his roots
[03:41.86] He's gone country
[03:43.56]
[03:46.01] He's gone country
[03:47.45]
[03:49.08] Everybody's gone country
[03:51.20]
[03:53.15] Yeah we've gone country
[03:55.09]
[03:56.84] The whole world's gone country
[03:59.20]
