Going Up the Country

(A. Wilson)



I'm going up to country baby,

Don't you wanna go

I'm going up to country baby,

Don't you wanna go

I'm going to someplace where

I've never been before.



I'm going, I'm going where

The water tastes like wine

I'm going where the water

Tastes just like the wine

We can jump in the water

And stay drunk all the time.



--- Instrumental ---



I'm gonna leave this city,

Got to get away

I'm gonna leave this city.

Got to get away

All this fussin' and a fightin'

And you know I just can't stay.



Baby pack your leavin' bag

And you know we've got to leave today

Just exactly where I cannot say

But we might even leave the USA

'Cause it's a brand new game

And I want to play.



--- Instrumental ---



No use if you're runnin'

A screamin' and cryin'

'Cause you got a whole

Nights long as I've got mine.



I'm going up to country baby,

Don't you wanna go

I'm going up to country baby,

Don't you wanna go

I'm going to someplace where

I've never been before.



I'm going, I'm going where

The water tastes like wine

I'm going where the water

Tastes just like the wine

We can jump in the water

And stay drunk all the time...
