Life in the Country

Writer: Charlie Powers

Vs. 1
Goin' down the mountain to see that gal of mine
Lives in the holler, sweet little clementine
Sorghum molasses, wild honey from the trees
Sweeter than gumdrops, she's the one for me

Vs. 2
Life in the Country is peaceful and still
Sitting on the front porch, listen to the whippoorwill
Snow on the mountain, it's high up in the hills
Fire in the wood stove shakes that morning chill

Vs. 3
Neighbors and kinfolk, they're coming up the road
It's time for a shindig, get out the old banjo
Banjo and fiddle make that bluegrass sound
Sweet mountain music, let's play another round
