Lyrics I'm Going to Be a Country Boy Again - Daniel O'Donnell

The rain is falling lightly on the buildings and the cars
I've said goodbye to city friends, department stores and bars
The lights of town are at my back, my heart is full of stars
And I'm gonna be a country boy again

I've spent some time in study, oh I've taken my degree
I've memorized my formula, my As and Bs and Cs
But what I know came long ago, and not from such as these
And I'm gonna be a country boy again

Oh yes I'm gonna be a country boy again
With an old brown dog and a big front porch and rabbits in the pen
I tell you all the lights on Broadway don't amount to an acre of green
And I'm gonna be a country boy again

I've wondered in the hearts of girls, lookin' for a sign
But here I might find happiness, I might find peace of mind
The one who taught my lesson was the soft wind through the pines
And I'm gonna be a country boy again

Oh yes I'm gonna be a country boy again
With an old brown dog and a big front porch and rabbits in the pen
I tell you all the lights on Broadway don't amount to an acre of green
And I'm gonna be a country boy again

Oh yes I'm gonna be a country boy again
