lyrics

Only takes a couple days
To escape and go back to the country
The LA heat, it hurts my feet
I am going back to the country

Living in a fantasy of funny trees
And Spanish flavored regalia
I feel death breath his breath down my neck
Hey death, would you take me back to the country?
I am going back to the country

Someone take me right away
I can’t wait another day
I am going back to the country

Walking through McArthur Park in the dark
To sell myself to the trash
But a hobo’s bash I do crash
And we’re all going back to the country
Would you take us back to the country?

Someone take me right away
I can’t wait another day
I am going back to the country

Doing what the monkeys say
Do da de. Now shoot yourself in the lip
But I slip and I shoot my hip
Now I’m limping back to the country
Could I get a ride to the country?
Would you take me back to the country?
I am going back to the country
