Country Persuasion

Country Persuasion

I've been to the city
And I didn't like it much
I'm happier here
Where I grew up
With wide-open spaces
And blue sky above

I like honky tonks
With sawdust on the dance floor
And a sign saying live music
By the front door
Yeah the country life
Is the life I love

Chorus
I'm of the country persuasion
If you know what I mean
I like to dance with pretty girls
In cowboy hats and jeans
Me plus them equals a good time
It's a real simple equation
I'm of the country persuasion

I work hard all week
But when Friday rolls around
I bet you money I'll be seen
Out on the town
Buying cold beers for
Every girl I see

If the band is hot
They'll draw a rowdy crowd
And when that dance floor starts hopping
There ain't no doubt
There's no place in the world
That I'd rather be

Bridge
You won't see me in no fancy suit
But don't you step on my cowboy boots
And you won't find me in no limousine
I like pickup trucks and country scenes
