Country Call ft. Player/Arranger Dan D'Amico Lyrics

The countryside was calling me

Kind of begging me to come

Said she needed company

And that I could give her some

But the words we say

And what we feel sometimes get confused

But I don't mind the diversions

If I still can find the truth

I met her on a Greyhound bus

Headed for Buffalo

There we talked about our lives

All the places we would go

And I saw in her eyes

A promise and a need

When she said she had a country home

I'd really like you to see

And I just sat back thinking

Watching her sleep

Giving life to images

Softly answering my dreams

But don't I know the dangers

Don't I heed the call

Don't I know how hard it is

To connect the numbers on the wall

Living in the city

Is a dignified disgrace

All the party people

And the makeup on their face

And my soul shows the scars

Of pulling a pavement plough

But a country girl could save me

And Becky the time is now
