Country Boy - Tim Buckley

I’m just a country boy

I’ve got sand all in my shoes i met a

Met a big city woman got the

Got the big city blues

I got the

Got the big city blues

I don’t want your sympathy

and i don’t want your pity

Oh let me be

Let me be

Oh let me be

Let me be

A country boy

Big city women

No you don’t know my mind

You can’t love me with a feeling

You can’t, can’t satisfy my mind.

No, can’t satisfy my mind

I don’t want your sympathy.

I don’t want your pity

Oh let me be

Let me be

Oh let me be

Let me be

A country boy

Oh look going back home there she goes

Back down to Memphis, Tennessee

I’ve got a woman who thinks the world of me

And now, love me all the time

And now, gonna love me all the time

I don’t want your sympathy

And i don’t want your pity

Oh let me be

Let me be

Oh let me be

Let me be

A country boy

A country boy

I’m just a country boy

Got sand all in my shoes i met a

Met a big city woman got the

Got the big city blues

I got the

Got the big city blues

I don’t want your sympathy

And i don’t want your pity

Oh let me be

Let me be

Oh let me be

Let me be

A country boy

A country boy
