A Country Boy At Heart

I want to climb the hillsides And to see each wondrous view, And find the peace I long for there It's all I wish to do, I want to walk down winding lanes And to see the lands of green, And to smell the pretty flowers there And breathe the air so clean. I just want to change my world I need a brand new start, And leave the strife of city life A country boy at heart. I want to cross the meadows And to see the woodlands grow, I want to find serenity Wherever I do go, I long to see the rivers And the gently flowing streams, Which sparkle in the sunlight there Within a place of dreams. I just want to change my world I need a brand new start, And leave the strife of city life A country boy at heart. I want to see the wheat that blows Within the fields of gold, I want to find the freedom And the treasures there untold, I want to hear the birdsongs In early morning skies, And to witness every sunset And to watch each dawning rise. I just want to change my world I need a brand new start, And leave the strife of city life A country boy at heart.
