Lyrics
COUNTRY GIRL
VERSE 1:
I CAN REMEMBER IN MY EIGHTH GRADE YEAR
SITTIN? BELOW A CHERRY TREE FIGHTING TEARS
STAYED THERE TILL MY DADDY SAID ?TIME TO GO?
LOOKED AT THE OLD HOUSE AND THEN GOT ON THE ROAD
CHORUS:
I MISS EVERYTHING ABOUT BEING A COUNTRY GIRL
LAYING LOW IN MY OWN LITTLE SIDE OF THE WORLD
WHERE THE ONLY LIGHTS ARE THE STARS ABOVE
SENT FROM HEAVEN, GOD SENDS HIS LOVE
VERSE 2:
PULLED UP TO A STREET IN DOWNTOWN LA.
NO MORE SWEET AND SOFT COUNTRY LANE
THE ONLY HORSES YOU?LL FIND AROUND HERE
ARE THE PLASTIC PONIES AT THE CITY FAIR.
REPEAT CHORUS:
BRIDGE:
DREAM, MY FAVORITE DREAM
I?M HOME BACK ON THE FARM
DREAMIN? MY FAVORITE DREAM
VERSE 3:
NOW I?M STUCK WHERE GRASS DOESN?T GROW
NO STARS, JUST THE CITY LAMPS GLOW IN MY WINDOW
SIRENS WAIL WITH FLASHING LIGHTS
BABIE?S CRIES ECHO IN THE NIGHT
REPEAT CHORUS:
? CRISSALYN, PHIL, AND HEATHER GEIGER
