BR5-49 - Movin' The Country Lyrics
C. Mead, A. MurphyWell a long time ago when I left home I never thought I would bePart of a wheel in a cog on a belt that turned the big machineI wanted out on the road or down on the street or something wild and freeBut now I'm payin' the bills and movin' the country in Nashville TennesseeThey promise you this they promise you that you never know what to believeAll I want is to live the good life that someone promised meYou try to be honest you try to be fair but the blame is always on meCause I'm payin' the bills and movin' the country in Nashville, TennesseeLong black shadow reachin' way too far crampin' everybody's styleEverybody here gets to be a star but when the lights go out you're still on trialNo matter where I go or what I do it never seems good enoughAll I know is if it don't kill me it's gonna make me toughTryin' hard not to fall through the cracks and grease up that machineBut I'm payin' the bills and movin' the country in Nashville Tenneessee
