Lyrics
“You’re Lookin’ At Country”
Well I like my lovin’ done country style and this little girl would walk a country mile
To find her a good ole slow talkin’ country boy I said a country boy
I’m about as old fashioned as I can be and I hope you’re likin’ what you see
Cause if you’re lookin’ at me you’re lookin’ at countryYou don’t see no city when you look at me cause country’s all I am
I love runnin’ barefoot through the old cornfields and I love that country ham
Well you say I’m made just to fit your plans
But does a barnyard shovel fit your hands
If your eyes are on me you’re lookin’ at countryThis here country is a little green and there’s a lotta country that you ain’t seen
I’ll show you around if you’ll show me a weddin’ band I said a weddin’ band
When it comes to love well I know about that country folks all know where it’s at
If you’re lookin’ at me you’re lookin’ at countryYou don’t see no city when you look at me cause country’s all I am
I love runnin’ barefoot through the old cornfields and I love that country ham
Well you say I’m made just to fit your plans
But does a barnyard shovel fit your hands
If your eyes are on me you’re lookin’ at countryIf your eyes are on me you’re lookin’ at country
