House In The Country Lyrics


He don't need no sedatives
To ease his troubled mind
At work he is invariably
Unpleasant and unkind
Why should he care
If he is hated in his home?
'Cause he's got a house in the country
And a big sports car
He's got a house in the country
And a big sports car
But he ain't gotta home, oh no
And he's as wicked as he can be
'Cause he's got a house in the country
Where he likes to spend his weekend days
Oh yeah, oh yeah, well, all right
Well, he got his job when drunken Daddy
Tumbled down the stairs
From that very day this boy

Is more than having his share
One of these days I'm gonna
Knock him off of his throne
'Cause he's got a house in the country
And a big sports car
He's got a house in the country
And a big sports car
And he's oh so smug, oh yeah
He's got everything he needs
'Cause he's got a house in the country
Where he likes to spend his weekend days
Oh yeah, oh yeah, well, all right
And he's oh so smug, oh yeah
He's got everything he needs
'Cause he's got a house in the country
And a big sports car
He's got a house in the country
And a big sports car
But he's socially dead, oh yeah
And it don't matter much to him
'Cause he's got a house in the country
Where he likes to spend his weekend days
Oh yeah, oh yeah, well all right
House in the country
House in the country
House in the country
House in the country
House in the country

The Kinks (1963–1996) were an English pop group that came out of the British R&B scene of the early 1960s.

Formed in 1963 in Muswell Hill, North London, they first gained prominence on the heels of the well-received and highly influential single "You Really Got Me" (1964). The group originally consisted of lead singer/guitarist Ray Davies, his brother lead guitarist Dave Davies, drummer Mick Avory, and bassist Peter Quaife. Quaife left (twice) in the late 1960s, and Avory finally left in 1984 as the result of a long-running dispute with Dave Davies, leaving only the Davies brothers as the core of the original group.

With Ray's songwriting skills and unashamedly English voices, Dave's impressive guitar work, and Avory's tight and steady drumming, the band became one of the best and most influential groups of British pop and the "british invasion" of the U.S.A., lasting longer than any of their competitors, apart from The Rolling Stones, as they broke up in 1996. Their catalogue of songs has been covered by Van Halen, The Pretenders, The Black Keys, The Stranglers,Queens of the Stone Age , and many more.
