I get to thinkin' about the starts that are out
but I can hardly see them
If I could just get away get out this place
Instead of only dreaming
About the way wind blows through the trees
To hear that song that always comforts me
I turn to country like a wild horse runs free
I got to that place where the mountains humble me
To hear that river rush, that soft sweet hush
It takes me somewhere else, when I wanna be myself
I turn to country
I can be anywhere but I'm not really there
I'm headin' down a highway
It's wide open road lined in clover and gold
Where the blue sky leaves the by-way
The red oak and the pine and maple leaves
I can't help it 'cause they're calling out to me
Well I turn to country like a wild horse runs free
I go to that place where the mountains humble me
To hear that river rush, that soft sweet hush
It takes me somewhere else, when I wanna be myself
I turn to country
I have days when a part of me is gone
But in my heart I know I'm right where I belong
and when I wanna get back home
I turn to country
I turn to country like a wild horse runs free
I go to that place where the mountains humble me
I turn to country like a wild horse runs free
I go to that place where the mountains humble me
To hear that river rush, that soft sweet hush
It takes me somewhere else, when I wanna be myself
I turn to country, oh yeah I turn to country
