Heading to the Country Lyrics

I can't take all this traffic on the interstate

We all try to fly, but it takes a day to get a mile

No wonder everybody is always full of hate

When they never see a stranger smile and wave

I gotta get away

I'll blow up if I stay

I'm driving to the country

Where the roads are full of nothing

I'm running through a meadow

Where the sunflowers grow

I'm lying on a hay bale

Send up a prayer that never fails

When I need a break from the city

I head out to the country

I'm heading to the country

I love all the space blowing fresh breeze on my face

You can't get this fill climbing towers that you built

How come everybody wants to go downtown

When they can find peace in the silence that I found

I'm driving to the country

Where the roads are full of nothing

I'm running through a meadow

Where the sunflowers grow

I'm lying on a hay bale

Send up a prayer that never fails

When I need a break from the city

I head out to the country

I'm heading to the country

I gotta get away

I'll blow up if I stay

I gotta get away

Good thing I know a place

I'm driving to the country

Where the roads are full of nothing

I'm running through a meadow

Where the sunflowers grow

I'm lying on a hay bale

Send up a prayer that never fails

When I need a break from the city

I head out to the country

I'm heading to the country yeah
