Down In The Country Songtext
von Israel Nash

Down in the country
Past the brush, and past the sticks
We keep to ourselves
Down on farm o′ seven-six

Down in the country

Stuck in the hard times
We are the forgotten kind
I'm coming out from below the line
How long will old Sam let it slide?
Not gonna let it happen twice

Down in the country
Down in the country
Down in the country


I see a wave of freedom
(Down in the country)
Speaking straight and speaking loud
(Down in the country)
I think he′s gonna dig us out
The aching man led you astray
Now everyone has to repay

Down in the country
Down in the country

Down in the country
Down in the country
Down with the country
Down with my country
(Down, down, down, down, down)
Hey! Ho!
