(Hawshaw/Gosling)
I was born in the country
I was raised with the sun
The flowers were my pillow
When the days work was done
Down in the valley
Shone bright neon signs
The call of the city life
Kept going through my mind
Oh yeah, the days of my childhood
Would soon be left behind
It was a Saturday morning
The snow lay on the ground
Pa said the time had come
When I could move to town
I kissed goodbye to Mama
Held tight to Papa's hand
I saw a tear in Mama's eye
But I did not understand
Cause I was just a country girl
Being brought up on the land
Goodbye Mama
Let me see you smile
Wipe away that teardrop from your eye
I won't forget that I'm a country girl
I've got to go but I hate to say goodbye
So long Papa
I'll be seeing you but
I'll be coming home again someday
No I won't forget that I'm a country girl
A country girl you know I'll always stay
I was born in the country
I was raised with the sun
The flowers were my pillow
When the days work was done
Yes I know where I belong
I've got my peace of mind
I was born a country girl
And that just suits me fine
Goodbye Mama
Let me see you smile
Wipe away that teardrop from your eye
I won't forget that I'm a country girl
I've got to go but I hate to say goodbye
So long Papa
I'll be seeing you but
I'll be coming home again someday
No I won't forget that I'm a country girl
I'll come back to you someday
Believe me
A country girl you know I'll always stay...
