In the Country - Babybird, Stephen Jones, Luke Scott

Finally somewhere in the country

A beautiful house and a beautiful wife

Two daughters and a chimney

And a little smog in the garden of my life

Will make us feel at home like a family

Like back in the city where the building are ugly

But the girls are pretty and the men are lovely

But they have no horses to ride on

No cloud no shame.

(?)

No fields to lie down in, in the hot sunny rain

I don’t know why I feel this way

But I know I wanna be making hay

In the country, yes I love my country

And I hope she loves me too

You don’t know you’re born if you’ve never mowed your lawn

Go out and make a salad with your own sweet corn

If you wanna hear some beautiful bull

Shake my Daisy by the horn

She’s that cow sitting by the pond

Licking up some frog spawn

It’s the caviar of the country

It’s the caviar of my life

Is the centre and the soul of my existence
