Livin’ Up Country

[Verse 1]
When I were living in the country
I were working up until I fell
I only went down
My ship had already sailed

I met a girl down in Memphis
It was going well I thought at first
She never said bye
She left when she'd knew I'd fail

[Chorus]
And if I could understand
Might finally get some rest at last
Would I fight to take a stand?
I'd never look back
Never have to look out for the Man

[Verse 2]
When I were moving out the country
Thought my luck came by and I was saved
Couldn't get out
I found no check in the mail

So I went up to Nashville
It was going well but then went still
I couldn't get by
Lucky to live to tell the tale

[Chorus]
And if I could understand
Might finally get some rest at last
Would I fight to take a stand?
I'd never look back
Never have to look out for the Man

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
And if I could understand
Might finally get some rest at last
Would I fight to take a stand?
I'd never look back
Never have to look out for the Man
Said never look back
Never have to look out for the Man
