Clinton County Songtext
We were ramblers, ramblin' around
Trying to find a way out, a way out somehow
We were young then, and time got away
Daddy said "Don't you wish your life away
Son it'll come sooner than you think"
We were used to runnin', runnin' them roads wild
Momma says "Where you goin', child?"
"I'll be back after while"
Then we graduated high school, and went our separate ways
Those were the days and I wish I could have stayed
But this life that I've been living, has been going way too fast
Sometimes I wish that I could go on back
Take me back to wherе you found me
Back down in Clinton County
Maybe I'd be bеtter off there
'Cause the sounds of the city
Push away this hillbilly
Let me go back to the hills that I call home
It's been so long since I've been gone
I'm coming home
Trying to make it on the road as a music man
Guitar in my hand, one piece band
Yeah, the living's just fine, but I miss most of my time
I spent back on the old homestead on that state line
Take me back to where you found me
Back down in Clinton County Maybe I'd be better off there
'Cause the sounds of the city
Push away this hillbilly
Let me go back to the hills that I call home
It's been so long since I've been gone
I'm coming home
Take me back to where you found me
Back down in Clinton County
Maybe I'd be better off there
'Cause the sounds of the city
Push away this hillbilly
Let me go back to the hills that I call home
It's been so long since I've been gone
Oh, it's been so long since I've been gone
I'm coming home
Trying to find a way out, a way out somehow
We were young then, and time got away
Daddy said "Don't you wish your life away
Son it'll come sooner than you think"
We were used to runnin', runnin' them roads wild
Momma says "Where you goin', child?"
"I'll be back after while"
Then we graduated high school, and went our separate ways
Those were the days and I wish I could have stayed
But this life that I've been living, has been going way too fast
Sometimes I wish that I could go on back
Take me back to wherе you found me
Back down in Clinton County
Maybe I'd be bеtter off there
'Cause the sounds of the city
Push away this hillbilly
Let me go back to the hills that I call home
It's been so long since I've been gone
I'm coming home
Trying to make it on the road as a music man
Guitar in my hand, one piece band
Yeah, the living's just fine, but I miss most of my time
I spent back on the old homestead on that state line
Take me back to where you found me
Back down in Clinton County Maybe I'd be better off there
'Cause the sounds of the city
Push away this hillbilly
Let me go back to the hills that I call home
It's been so long since I've been gone
I'm coming home
Take me back to where you found me
Back down in Clinton County
Maybe I'd be better off there
'Cause the sounds of the city
Push away this hillbilly
Let me go back to the hills that I call home
It's been so long since I've been gone
Oh, it's been so long since I've been gone
I'm coming home
