    Backstory:
    I lived the years in a large city (Los Angeles), which although was exciting at the time, only solidified why I love living in the country.                                         

    Lyrics:
                                                      
    Sittin’ by my window, watchin’ raindrops hit the ground Like starin’ in the face of a woman grievin’ Takes me back to long ago, before we finally settled down You couldn’t believe that I was leavin’ Give me the wide open country The sound of children’s laughter in the air With grass a growin’ high, and tree tops reachin’ to the sky And country music playin’ everywhere You grew up metropolis, I was rocky mountain air I couldn’t ask you to leave, but I couldn’t stay But loneliness surrounded us, I turned and you were there You spoke the words you’d always heard me say Give me the wide open country The sound of children’s laughter in the air With grass a growin’ high, and tree tops reachin’ to the sky And country music playin’ everywhere Time will burn to ashes, like wood upon a fire We’ll grow old me lovin’ you, you lovin’ me And if the good Lord blesses, us with our desire He’ll grow a few branches on our family tree Give me the wide open country The sound of children’s laughter in the air With grass a growin’ high, and tree tops reachin’ to the sky And country music playin’ everywhere Give me the wide open country The sound of children’s laughter in the air With grass a growin’ high, and tree tops reachin’ to the sky And country music playin’ everywhere
