I was raised out in the country
Just outside a real small town
And just like any other young boy
All my life I dream of getting out.

I’ve been down to the city
It’s a real nice place to see
But I got too much rebel in me
I gotta be somewhere where I can breath.

You can take me out of the country
Miles from where I wanna be
You can take me out of the country
But you can’t take the country out of me.

Hurry home to my woman
Big blue eyes and long blong hair
And we’ll make love way out till morning
And tell the world I don’t care.

You can take me out of the country
Miles from where I wanna be
You can take me out of the country
But you can’t take the country out of me.

Take me out of the country
Miles from where I wanna be
You can take me out of the country
But you can’t take the country out of me.

You can take me out of the country
But you can’t take the country out of me...
