Johnny Rivers - Moving To The Country lyrics

So many people are movin' to the country
See how they stumble the weary and the worn
Lookin' for good laughs
With strong hearts and soft hands

It looks like better days are bein' born now
Oh yes they are

They met the old man livin' on the highway
He raised up his finger
As they were passin' by "Where you goin'?"
He said, "Where you been"

And that made all the children start to cry
Oh yes it did

Some were cryin' some were prayin'
Some were throwin' their treasures away
Straighten out your road, you better
Lighten up your load

'Cause you can't take it with you anyway
Oh no you can't

There is a mountain there is a valley
There is a river where the chosen people go
Go to see Moses go to see Jesus

And anybody here's who wants to show
It's alright

So many people are movin' to the country
See how they stumble the weary and the worn
Lookin' for good laughs
With strong hearts and soft hands

Woah, it looks like better
Days are bein' born
Oh, it looks like better days
Are bein' born now
Yeah, it looks like better
Days are bein' born oh yes they are
