Randy Newman - My Country lyrics
Your rating:
This is pretty damn close to the way I grew up. the family time was consumed every night with watching television: my mother in a chairdad on the sofame lying on the floor and my brother sit Behind me. that was our family unitand it's something I was very comfortable with. when I can get my wife and kids to watch television with meI get a sense of comfort - it's like what I reme As long as they're watchingI don't have to; I read or something. but at least we're all there together. The guy in the song doesn't understand why his kids would come over to his house. he thinks"they have their own tvs; why do they want to come over and watch mine? if you have a telev why would you go anywhere? " that's where this person lives - it's his countrytelevisionland. when I go see my fatherhe just wants me to go home so he can watch "matlock." bu E felt the same thing. I'm watching a ball game and one of my kids threatens to come overand I say to myself"shit." hopefully I'm not that badbut I'm pretty close to it.
