Lyrics
Gonna' Join a Country Rock Band
Have to tell you just how I feel,
like the birds singin' out in the fields.
That love is not my strongest stand,
so I'm off to join a country rock band...
Yes, I'm off to join a country rock band.
The way I live gives me the blues.
Though, for years, I've been payin' my dues.
It doesn't add up to a dime,
and I think it's just a waste of my time...
So, I'm gonna join a country rock band.
(Chorus)
Though pain tears away at my heart,
I'm looking for a brand new start.
Got the wind at my back, and I'm on my way.
Leavin' town today.
I've chased the American dream:
Apple pie, peaches and cream.
Like a boat swims against the tide,
sometimes it's an awful hard ride...
So, I'm gonna' join a country rock band.
(Intro Lead)
(Repeat Chorus)
Gotta' move on outta' this town.
Set my sails, never turn around.
Got my gig bag here in my hand,
so I'm off to join a country rock band.....
Yes, I'm gonna' join a country rock,
Gotta' be a country rock,
Heartbroke country rock band.
