Heart. Kinship. Country
Lyrics: My Country
My Country is a song about missing where you came from. When big-city nonstop, busy pace starts closing in, sometimes all you want is clean air, quiet roads, and the simple peace of a small-town backwoods life—so you can breathe again.
Lyrics written by: Jason Fowler, Brent Wilson
I was born in a backwoods place, where folks know your name
Baitin' hooks and skippin' stones, on Jackson Lake
Seems those days can pass you by, in the blink of an eye
Take me back to those simple ways, the simple times
This Big Town is killin' me, I can't breathe, and I can't see
I just wanna be set free, runnin' wild in my country
We were young and just chasin' dreams, levin' dust in the wind
Life shows up, and it changes things, you gotta start again
Lord, I know that there's so much more we can learn from the past
Gotta pack my things and go, make these good times last
This Big Town is killin' me, I can't breathe, and I can't see
I just wanna be set free, take me back, take me back
Let's not worry, let's not wait, pack your bags we won't be late
You and me we got memories to make
This Big Town is killin' me, I can't breathe, and I can't see
I just wanna be set free, take me back, take me back
This Big Town is killin' me, I can't breathe, and I can't see
I just wanna be set free, take me back, to my country
Take me back to my country, to my country
