My Heart’s in the Country Songtext
von Skeeter Davis

My heart′s in the country
And I'm going back
My name is on the sign upfront
In flashing pretty lights
Hundred of people pay to see me every night
And after each show they beg me for my autograph
They all think I′m happy all the while I laugh
Yes my heart's in the country
On a farm in Ohio
With my mama and daddy
And the only friends I know
There's a strange different yearning
For a farm boy named Jack
Yes my heart′s in the country
And I′m going back
Oh I've had my fill of the big towns


And all the glaring neon lights
I′ll give anything to sit by daddy's fireplace late tonight
And just once more
If I could hear him play some old tunes on his violin
There′ll be no show for me tonight
Cos I'm going home again
Yes my heart′s in the country
On a farm in Ohio
With my mama and daddy
And the only friends I know
There's a strange different yearning
For a farm boy named Jack
Yes my heart's in the country
And I′m going back
Yes my heart′s in the country
And I'm going back
