I’ll Keep the Country Lyrics by Dylan Marlowe

2021

[Verse 1]
You never liked it out here anyways
So this shouldn't be too hard
To get your tires turnin' back to where you came from
So we can get a brand new start
[Pre-Chorus]
You stay on the city side of them city limit signs
I'll stay where the buckshot runs right through it
Oh, girl, if we're gonna get through it
[Chorus]
Then you keep the lights and I'll keep the stars
I'll stick around where it's too damn far
From the highway where the lines fade
And there's a little more dirt on a two-lane, baby
You keep the fast and I'll keep the slow
I'll keep the train track bump in the road
If either one of us is gonna move on, honey
You keep the town and I'll keep the country
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, I'll keep the country
[Verse 2]
Yeah, long as I can keep it out
Where I won't run into you everywhere I go
Well, you can have them downtown bars
Hang out where the grass don't grow
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, you stay on the city side of them city limit signs
I'll stay where the buckshot runs right through it
Oh, girl, if we're gonna get through it
[Chorus]
You keep the lights and I'll keep the stars
I'll stick around where it's too damn far
From the highway where the lines fade
And there's a little more dirt on a two-lane, baby
You keep the fast and I'll keep the slow
I'll keep the train track bump in the road
If either one of us is gonna move on, honey
You keep the town and I'll keep the country
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, I'll keep the country, yeah
[Bridge]
Yeah, I'll keep the crickets singin'
And you can keep your daddy's last name
Oh, we can draw a line in the middle
Baby, let's just keep it real simple
[Chorus]
Well, you keep the lights and I'll keep the stars
I'll stick around where it's too damn far
From the highway where the lines fade
And there's a little more dirt on a two-lane, baby
You keep the fast and I'll keep the slow
I'll keep the train track bump in the road
If either one of us is gonna move on, honey
You keep the town and I'll keep the country
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, I'll keep the country
Oh, you keep the town and I'll keep the country
