Alan Jackson - Gone Country Lyrics






She's been playing in a room on the strip for ten years in Vegas
Every night she looks in the mirror and she only ages
She's been readin' about Nashville and all the records that everybody's buying
Says, I'm a simple girl myself, grew up on Long Island

So she packs her bags to try her hand
Says this might be my last chance

She's gone country, look at them boots
She's gone country, back to her roots
She's gone country, a new kind of suit
She's gone country, here she comes

Well the folk scene's dead, but he's holding out in the Village
He's been writing songs, speaking out against wealth and privilege
He says, I don't believe in money, but a man could make him a killin'
'Cause some of that stuff don't sound much different than Dylan

I hear down there it's changed, you see
Well, they're not as backward as they used to be

He's gone country, look at his boots
He's gone country, back to his roots
He's gone country, a new kind of suit
He's gone country, here he comes

He commutes to L.A., but he's got a house in the Valley
But the bills are piling up and the pop scene just ain't on the rally
And he says, honey, I'm a serious composer, schooled in voice and composition
But with the crime and the smog these days, this ain't no place for children

Lord, it sounds so easy, this shouldn't take long
Be back in the money in no time at all

He's gone country, look at them boots
He's gone country, back to his roots
He's gone country, a new kind of suit
He's gone country, here he comes

Yeah, he's gone country, a new kind of walk
He's gone country, a new kind of talk
He's gone country, look at them boots
He's gone country, oh, back to his roots

He's gone country
He's gone country
Everybody's gone country
Yeah, we've gone county
The whole world's gone country

    Every night she looks in the mirror
    But she only ages
    She's been reading about Nashville and all

    Says 'I'm a simple girl myself
    Grew up on Long Island'
    So she packs her bags to try her hand
    Says this might be my last chance

    She's gone country, look at them boots
    She's gone country, back to her roots
    She's gone country, a new kind of suit
    She's gone country, here she comes

    Well the folk scene is dead

    I'm born and raised in LA and as a musician I played blues and HARD rock. But in the late 80's and 90's I got seriously into American country music....the mid 90's still my favorite period. And so this Jackson guy came up. He's so NOT LA but he's got a great voice and always a good band. I f'ing love this song.

    Country music is number one for me when I was growing up and it always will be no matter the artist

  80. T.... ....

    Love this song - grew up on rap, metal & then Grateful Dead/Phish - as a person of color it took me a while to understand country even when those were like WTF is wrong with you...country music??? YEAH COUNTRY MUSIC - ITS AMAZING & FOR EVERYBODY!! Glad I got & understand it!

  81. L.... ....

    My sister and brother in law saw Alan at the old Nassau colisiuem years ago.....she said the place went fucking nuts when he said the line " she grew up on long island"

  82. a.... t....

    My best song contry music ... Alan Jackson

  83. S.... J....

    The 80' and 90's had the best country music. The radio would play one great song after another. Today you have to listen for days before you hear a REAL COUNTRY SONG. Most of today singers sound like pop or rock singers mixed with rap. What the hell happen?????

  84. R.... M....

    Country boy left the big city and found serenity in the south bay<3

  85. R.... C....

    Adoro amo lindo de mais minha mãe ama ele

  86. L.... M....
