My Heart's In The Country Lyrics - Skeeter Davis

My heart's in the country and I'm going back 

My name is on the sign up front in flashing pretty lights 

Hundreds of people pay to see me every night 

And after each show they beg me for my autograph 

They all think I'm happy oh what a laugh 

Yes my heart's in the country on a farm in Ohio 

With my mama and daddy and the only friends I know 

There's a strange different yearning for a farm boy named Jack 

Yes my heart's in the country and I'm going back 

Oh I've had my fill of the big towns and all the glaring neon lights 

I'd give anything to sit by daddy's fireplace late tonight 

And just once more if I could hear him play some old tune on his violin 

There'll be no show for me tonight cause I'm going home again 

Yes my heart's in the country... 

Yes my heart's in the country now I'm going back
