Artist/Band: Roy Drusky
Lyrics for Song: Country's Gone
Lyrics for Album: Portrait of Roy Drusky (Mercury) [1969]



(Sanger D. Shafer)



There's no more common people with no more fields to sow

City ways have swallowed country days and in concrete seeds won't grow

The bubbling brook that used to yield it's treasures just for me

As long since dried but will stay alive on my page of memories

City lights change the nights country's gone.



The trees that children climb today are made of iron and steel

Golden grain knows no summer rain when it falls on asphalt fields

Thr girl next door went to Baltimore and waits with empty arms

While big machines cut through hills of green run by boys who've left the farm

Traffic signs store bought rhymes country's gone.



Fishin' poles and mixin' bowls hang dusty by the door

And that load of hay from a by gone day doesn't pass here anymore

Trees for sale through the mail country's gone...
