Working in the city every day Gotta make a living any way Never get the time to turn around Gotta get my feet back on the ground Living in the city don't bring me no joy 'Cos deep down inside I'm still just a country boy
Since I was a boy I'd played it cool Never used to worry what I'd do Now I push a pen from nine till five Waiting for my pension to arrive Living in the city don't bring me no joy 'Cos deep down inside I'm still just a country boy
Queen of the River, she's so fine Gonna take a trip back down the line Back to the country one more time Try and find myself some peace of mind Living in the city don't bring me no joy 'Cos deep down inside I'm still just a country boy Country boy .. etc
