Rory Gallagher - Country Mile lyrics

Your rating:

A gap in the hedge,
 Did you hear what I said?
 Born in a house with no slates,
 But I wouldn't switch,
 I didn't have a stitch,
 Always been out on a limb,
 I've been hard to mend,
 Like a kick in the shin.
 You'll only see me smile,
 When I eat up a country mile.

 Born on the green light,
 A mission to move,
 Something to prove,
 An itch in my shoes,
 I heard then wail of a train,
 From a burnin' stack,
 And I jumped on the back,
 Well the engineer threw the switch,
 And it got to my brain,
 I've never been the same.

 You'll only see me smile,
 When I eat up a country mile.

 Gotta make tracks,
 Gotta raise the dust,
 Grease my heels,
 Out race the bus,
 Don't blink your eyes,
 You won't see me again.

 Born a spoke of the wheel,
 Not a part of the set,
 And I'm running yet,
 I ran before I could walk,
 The price of the fare,
 Was hardly ever there,
 I saw an eight wheeler move,
 And I couldn't choose,
 I just had to cruise.

 You'll only see me smile,
 When I eat up a country mile.

 Well I was born on the side of the road,
 A gap in the hedge,
 Did you hear what I said,
 Born in a house with no slates,
 But I wouldn't switch,
 I didn't have a stitch,
 I've always been out on a limb,
 I've been hard to mend,
 Like a kick in the shin.

 You'll only see me smile,
 When I eat up a country mile.

 Gotta make tracks,
 Gotta raise the dust,
 Grease my heels,
 Out race the bus,
 Don't blink your eyes,
 Or you won't see me again.
