Take Me totThe Country - Mel McDaniel

Workin' nine to five just to stay alive

Livin' from day to day

And the TV dinners and the tonic

And gin is eatin' up all my pay

It’s a natural fact if you’re livin' like that

You won’t be livin' long

Takes a whole lotta lovin' from a whole lotta woman

To keep you satisfy and strong

Well, on the outskirts of town there’s a lady I’ve found

Knows how to treat me right

She’s gonna take me to the country tonight

She’s gonna take me to the country

She’s gonna take me to the country

Well there’s a woman I found on the outskirts of town

Knows how to treat me right

She’s gonna take me to the country tonight

Well, when the weekend comes and the work is done

I’m lookin' for a place to play

I leave the city streets for the trees

And creeks saddle up my Chesapeake Bay

With the moon above and a feelin' for love

We’re dancin' on a hardwood floor

It takes a whole lotta lovin' from a whole lotta woman

To keep me comin' back for more

Well, on the outskirts of town there’s a lady I’ve found

Knows how to treat me right

She’s gonna take me to the country tonight

She’s gonna take me to the country

She’s gonna take me to the country
