| Lyrics: | When I look back
Boy, must've been a dream
Boppin' in the country
Fishin' in a
stream
Lookin' for an answer
Trying' to find a sign
Until I saw your city
lights
Honey, I was blind.
They said, get back, Honky Cat
Better get back to
the woods
Well, I quit those days and my redneck ways
And oh, oh, oh, oh, the change is
gonna do me good
You better get back, Honky Cat
Livin' in the city ain't where It's
at
It's like tryin' to find gold in a silver mine
It's like tryin' to drink whisky from a
bottle of wine
Well I read some books and I read some magazines
About those high
class ladies
Down in New Orleans
And all the folks back home said I was a fool
They
said believe in the Lord
Is the golden rule
They said stay at home, boy, you gotta
tend the farm
Livin' in the city, boy
Is gonna break your heart
But now can you stay
when your heart says no
How can you stop
When your feet say go |
