Clay Walker - Countrified lyrics

This working all day ain't gettin me nowhere

breakin my back won't to get it done

wish I had a dime wish i had a dollar,

for every dream that I gave up on, that I gave up on.

This hammer I'm swingin is startin to feel heavy

I clench my fist when I punch the clock

a little for the bank leaves nothing for my baby

stretchin my paycheck around the block

I need to go face first into that fresh air

free up there where the eagle flies

need to drop a line in that cool clear water

leave the city behind and get countrified

a fools gold watch and a lung full of black smoke

is all I get for all I gave

my only reward for this broken down body

was diggin my way to an early grave

always dreamed I'd end up on a river

fast asleep on a mountain high

but i'm way down here in this concrete valley

in a sea of barbers and red taillights, red taillights

I need to go face first into that fresh air

free up there where the eagle flies

need to drop a line in that cool clear water

leave the city behind and get countrified

(2X) (fit to be tied)

This working all day ain't gettin me nowhere

breakin my back won't to get it done

wish I had a dime wish i had a dollar,

for every dream that I gave up on, that I gave up on.
