Sweet Country Calling
(Clarke / Sylvester / Hicks) Going down to take a ride on the Rock Island Line I'm gonna meet an old friend of mine It's gonna be a fine ride if only I can hide From the man who guards the freighting line I've got two thousand miles to go where I want to be Lady luck stay with me I wanna be there I gotta be there [Chorus:] Oh, sweet country calling, calling me its way Come and bathe in cool clear waters, wash the city dirt away Oh, sweet country calling, I've got something to say When I get back to you, I won't let you down This time I'm gonna stay I wanna hear, hear the bluegrass I wanna breathe in the mountain air I gotta take in all that moonshine But most of all I wanna see a friend of mine Last time I saw her she was waving me goodbye Heading on down the line She said Come on along, I decided to stay SongtexteNow I know I was wrong That's why I'm playing with fate riding this freight Lady luck please stay with me I wanna be there I gotta be there [Chorus 2x] Aus Songtexte Mania
