I stepped out of the rain into a downtown city cafe And I saw him at the counter looking lonesome at the rain I sat down beside him and I ordered us some coffee He smiled and said
Hello city country is my name and I'm here to play your city game
I saw there in his eyes such a pure and simple beauty That could not have been bred upon these dark and dingy streets I liked the look he gave me and I asked him if he'd stay And he said
Maybe for a while till I get back on my feet and I sure could use a place to sleep
Lay lay country lay on my mind home is where the lovin' heart is beating free Lay lay country lay on my mind For deep inside these city lies a whole lot of country in me A whole lot of country in me
The days we spent laughin' and just walkin' in the park And the nights we spent in each other's arms But time brought a change that brought him tossed and tumbled sleep And I heard him mumble somethin' about a baby and a farm
I've gotta go make sure they're safe and warm
I woke up this morning and I opened up my eyes Just in time to see him walkin' out the door But I had dreams and feelings that would always keep me happy Even though I knew I wouldn't see him anymore so I just let him close the door Lay lay country lay on my mind...
