LYRIC

When there’s nothing to say
And it’s been a long day
I go outside
To watch the tide
Or hear the breeze
Run through the trees
Never a word
To the songbird
Standin’ proud
Singin’ loud
Slow walk
Let the country talk
Slow walk
Country talk

When I feel restless
Drowned in excess
I go outside
And take a ride
To sniff the air
By the county fair
In a pathless wood
Sweet and good
Good and sweet
Is the winter sun’s heat
Slow walk
Let the country talk
Slow walk
Country talk

Better if it’s you with me and we see
That this is the way that life should be
Slow walk
Country talk

When I hear the news
And get the highway blues
I go outside
And testify
To my good friends
By the river that bends
The truth of it all
Under trees so tall
Standing proud
There ain’t no pockets in a shroud

Slow walk
Let the country talk
