Country Born

COUNTRY BORN

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2017


MOONSHINE WILD, RUNNING FREE
WHOLE LIFE AHEAD OF ME
FARM STRONG, HEADSTRONG
I HAD IT GOING ON
I HAD MY FRIENDS, BUT THEY WERE FEW
BACK THEN I COULD PICK AND CHOOSE
I COULD HARDLY LOSE

SWEET LITTLE GIRL BESIDE ME
DRIVING DOWN A COUNTRY ROAD
STOPPED TO LOOK AT THE STARS
SWEET LITTLE GIRL
ALL I NEED TO TAME THIS WILD HEART
SOMEWHERE TO START

COMBINES GLEAMING IN THE MORNING SUN
MOVE ON TREMBLING WHEAT
TIP YOUR HAT, TAP YOUR FEET
COUNTRY BOY LET LOOSE IN THE WORLD
SUNNY DAYS AND FRESH CUT HAY
BIRDS OF PREY, BUTTERFLIES, COUNTRYSIDE
COUNTRY BORN MY LOVE IS STRONG
AND THE ROAD BEFORE ME LOOKS LONG AND WINDING

INTO THE MORNING SUN
SEAS OF WHEAT AND WINDMILLS ON HALLOWED GROUND
SOMETIMES IT GETS SO QUIET
YOU CAN'T HEAR A SOUND
HARD TO LEAVE BEHIND, BUT AT THE SAME TIME
NEW HORIZONS CALL
I HAVE TO SEE THEM ALL
LEAVING FOR GOOD SOUNDS SO FINAL

MOONSHINE WILD, RUNNING FREE
NO I CAN'T LOOK BACK
BUT I KNOW WHERE I'M FROM
COUNTRY BORN UNDER BLUE SKIES
THE FARTHER THE BEGINNING, THE CLOSER THE END
IT'S ALL CLEAR, ONE BY ONE, CHANCES DISAPPEAR
CLEANING THE WELL, DINNER BELL
PICKING HARVEST, TRACTORS IN THE FIELD
I CAN SEE THE DUST RISING, INTO THE SKY
AND NOW HERE TOWARDS THE END
A LITTLE WORN, BUT STILL, COUNTRY BORN
