Lyrics Takin' the Country Back - John Anderson

Goin' down to muscle shoals where the swamp water rhythm flows
Live the only way I know, I'm just a common man
Headed down to Texas way where the honky-tonk heroes play
Gonna find that lost highway, that's where I'll make a stand

Takin' the country back, it's high time we face the facts
Heart and soul slippin' through the cracks, we're takin' the country back
Takin' the country back, we're not sure just where it's at
We've got to get it back on track, we're takin' the country back

Bright lights and limousines, fame and fortune I have seen
Still searchin' for that dream, it's callin' me back home
Down to earth where the music's real, singin' 'bout what the people feel
Timeless truth now that's the deal, we got to pass in on y'all

Takin' the country back, it's high time we face the facts
Heart and soul slippin' through the cracks, we're takin' the country back

Takin' the country back, it's high time we face the facts
Heart and soul slippin' through the cracks, we're takin' the country back
Takin' the country back, it's high time we face the facts
We're not sure where it's at, but we're takin' the country back

Takin' the country back it's high time we face the facts
Heart and soul slippin' through the cracks, we're takin' the country back
We're takin' the country back
Takin' the country on back
