Way out in the country where I used to
live Lordy Lordy what I wouldn't give
To turn back the time and be a boy again
and see the sun come up every morning
A quarter of a mile to the grocery store school
bus came within a mile off my door
And here in distance of a cotton gin
a thirty minute walk to Ruby
Oh I'd walk it in the moonlight oh
I'd walk it on the dark night
Rain or shine this heart of mine
Oh she could kiss me just right
oh but I was a little too shy
For I got the nerve to make my move
