City Livin'
Escape the Concrete Jungle: Embracing the Heart of Country Livin'
Lyrics
City livin ain't easy
City living is challenging
For a country boy at heart
Especially for someone with a rural background
I need woods, clean air
Desire for natural surroundings, fresh air
And two track dirt roads
Preference for rural, unpaved roads
To keep from fallin' apart
Need for these elements to maintain well-being
Yet it seems I've gotta find a way
Struggling to cope with city life
Every single working day
Obligation to work daily
To just keep my head down and do my part
Focused on responsibilities, keeping a low profile
That just ain't been workin' out at all
Current approach not yielding positive results
Lunch break, smoke break,
Breaks during the workday
Listen to a hot take
Engaging with popular opinions
And try'n make sense if it all
Attempting to make sense of it all
Days go by like yesterday's wine
Time passing quickly, reminiscent of past experiences
I got a lotta nothin' to show for my time
Lack of tangible achievements
And that just ain't been workin' out at all
Current situation is not satisfactory
Country livin' comes easy
Rural living is more natural and comfortable
If your heart's already there
If one's heart is in a rural setting
The buzz of town is a distant dream
Urban life is distant and unattractive
Sittin' in the shade with a breeze in the air
Enjoying the tranquility of nature
You'll no longer find your days
Freedom from the hustle of city life
Caught up runnin' in the big rat race
Avoiding the competitive nature of urban living
Fighting for the scraps
Struggling for limited resources
That the rich folks choose to share
Rich individuals controlling and distributing resources
That just ain't been workin' out at all
Similar issues persist in rural settings
Lunch break, smoke break,
Breaks during the workday (repeated)
Listen to a hot take
Engaging with popular opinions (repeated)
And try'n make sense if it all
Attempting to make sense of it all (repeated)
Days go by like yesterday's wine
Time passing quickly, reminiscent of past experiences (repeated)
I got a lotta nothin' to show for my time
Lack of tangible achievements (repeated)
And that just ain't been workin' out at all
Current situation is not satisfactory (repeated)
