THEY CALL ME HAYSEED
COUNTRY BOY
BUT WHAT I AM I
CAN'T AVOID
MY HOMETOWN STREETS
ARE PART OF ME
THE CITY LIMIT SIGNS
ARE BACK TO BACK
WE AIN'T EVEN A
DOT ON THE MAP
NOTHIN' TO DO BUT
MAN DO YOU FEEL FREE
HERE IN NOWHERE USA
THAT'S WHERE I'M FROM
AND WHERE I'LL STAY
YOU CAN HAVE YOUR
BROADWAY NIGHTS
I'LL TAKE STARS AND
PALE MOONLIGHT
AND RAISE MY
KIDS SOMEDAY
IN NOWHERE USA
WE GOT ONE STOPLIGHT
AND A COP NAMED JOE
AN OLD CAFE WHERE
EVERYBODY GOES
CHURCH ON SUNDAY
A DANCE ON
SATURDAY NIGHT
THE KIDS DRAG MAIN
THEIR FOLKS STAY HOME
PLAYIN' CARDS AND
DOMINOES
OUR FAMILY'S STRONG
AND WE KNOW
WRONG FROM RIGHT
BACK IN NOWHERE USA
THAT'S WHERE I'M FROM
AND WHERE I'LL STAY
YOU CAN HAVE YOUR
BROADWAY NIGHTS
I'LL TAKE STARS AND
PALE MOONLIGHT
AND RAISE MY
KIDS SOMEDAY
IN NOWHERE USA
WE DON'T LAUGH OR
LOOK DOWN OUR NOSE
OR JUDGE A MAN BY THE
CUT OF HIS CLOTHES
WE DON'T LIVE THAT WAY
IN NOWHERE USA
THEY CALL ME HAYSEED
COUNTRY BOY
BUT WHAT I AM I
CAN'T AVOID
MY HOMETOWN STREETS
ARE PART OF ME
