Country Livin' (The World I Know) Lyrics

Country Livin' (The World I Know)

The world I know
Is a world too slow
(If you) Don't move fast enough, keep your head low

The world I know
Is a world much too slow
If you can't move fast enough child, better stay on the low child

And I want to lay in the passenger seat of a car
We could drive around all night
We wouldn't have to go too far
Just look at the stars
This night could be ours

The world I know
Is a world too slow
(If you) Don't move fast enough, keep your head low

The world I know
Is a world much too slow
If you can't move fast enough child, better stay on the low child

And I want a life lover that'll go that far
We don't have to do this right
Do you know who you are
This ride could be ours
Just look at those stars

And we are never going home
This ride is far too long to travel alone
And the moon will shine brightly on this road
Which way (do) you want to go?

The world I know
Is a world too slow
(If you) Don't move fast enough, keep your head low

The world I know
Is a world much too slow
If you can't move fast enough child, better stay on the low child

And I want a life lover that'll go that far
We don't have to do this right
Yes I know who you are
This ride could be ours
Just look at those stars
Baby we could be stars

Cover art for Country Livin' (The World I Know) lyrics by Esthero

this is probably one of the most perfect-sounding songs ever made, right up there with Isaac Hayes' Walk on By and the Beatles' Yesterday. The sentiment is clear that she's bored with her life, with the slow plodding days and nights of country living. I feel like I just want to pack up and leave it all behind too, and this is my theme song.

I just love this song.

You get the feeling that you're in a car driving along a moonlit country road. I love the slight crackling surface noise, and pulse that work perfectly with her wonderfuly clear voice.
