A country girl leaves home with a dream of what she'll find
Leaving what she's always felt above
Leavin' with a future that she's seen inside her mind
Looking for a taste of life and love
If there's magic in the city it's a pity cause I ain't seen none yet
And it's that country life I can't forget
And I'd gladly trade the shoes upon my feet to take her place
Just before she steps aboard that train
If I were in her shoes I know I'd turn around turn around
And trade away these lonesome city blues
A country girl is bored with all the folks she's known so well
Bored with all the faces that she's seen
Bored with all the gossip that the grown-ups find to tell
Looking for a way to fill a need
If there's magic in the city it's a pity....
If I were in her shoes Lord I'd turn around turn around
And trade away these lonesome city blues
