OUT IN THE COUNTRY...


Whenever I need to leave it all behind 
Or feel the need to get away 
I find a quiet place, 
far from the human race 
Out in the country 
Before the breathin' air is gone 
Before the sun is just a bright spot 
in the nighttime 
Out where the rivers like to run 
I stand alone and take back 
somethin' worth rememberin' 
Whenever I feel them closing in on me 
Or need a bit of room to move 
When life becomes too fast, 
I find relief at last 
Out in the country 
Before the breathin' air is gone 
Before the sun is just a bright spot 
in the nighttime 
Out where the rivers like to run 
I stand alone and take back 
somethin' worth rememberin'
~
Three Dog Night
