Country Boy Songtext

von Tim Buckley

I'm just a country boy
I've got sand all in my shoes i met a
Met a big city woman got the
Got the big city blues
I got the
Got the big city blues
I don't want your sympathy
And i don't want your pity

Oh let me be
Let me be
Oh let me be
Let me be
A country boy

Big city women
No you don't know my mind
You can't love me with a feeling
You can't, can't satisfy my mind.
No, can't satisfy my mind

I don't want your sympathy.
I don't want your pity

Oh let me be
Let me be
Oh let me be
Let me be
A country boy

Oh look going back home there she goes
Back down to Memphis, Tennessee
I've got a woman who thinks the world of me
And now, love me all the time
And now, gonna love me all the time

I don't want your sympathy
And i don't want your pity

Oh let me be
Let me be
Oh let me be
Let me be

A country boy
A country boy

I'm just a country boy
Got sand all in my shoes i met a
Met a big city woman got the
Got the big city blues
I got the
Got the big city blues
I don't want your sympathy
And i don't want your pity

Oh let me be
Let me be
Oh let me be
Let me be
A country boy
A country boy
