Back to the Country Lyrics by Loretta Lynn

Back to the Country

1975

Apple blossoms in the air, rabbit hunters everywhere
It's back to the country life for me
Blue skies and butterflies, I smell Mama's apple pies
It's back to the country life for me
Well, I'm not meant for city life, I'd never make the city wife
I've got a yearnin' for milkin' cows, bakin' bread, and sloppin' souse
Flies a-buzzin' everywhere, bailin' hay or rockin' chair
Supper's on, I'm almost there, it's back to the country life for me
Shady lanes and lima beans, skinny-dippin' in the stream
It's back to the country life for me
I'm gonna find me a country boy, we'll raise kids, ten or more
It's back to the country life for me
Well, I'm not meant for city life, I'd never make the city wife
I've got a yearnin' for milkin' cows, bakin' bread, and sloppin' souse
Flies a-buzzin' everywhere, bailin' hay or rockin' chair
Supper's on, I'm almost there, it's back to the country life for me
It's back to the country life for me
