Karaoke Gone Country

She's been playin' in a room on the Strip for ten years in Vegas
Every night she looks in the mirror and she only ages
She's been readin' about
Nashville and all the records that everybody's buyin'
Says I'm a simple girl myself grew up on Long Island
So she packs her bags to try her hand
Says this might be my last chance
She's gone country look at them boots
She's gone country back to her roots
She's gone country a new kind of suit
She's gone country here she comes
Well the folk scene is dead but he's holdin' out in the village
He's been writin' songs speakin' out against wealth and privilege
He says
I don't believe in money
But a man could make him a killin'
'Cos some of that stuff don't sound much different than Dylan
I hear down there it's changed you see
They're not as backward as they used to be
He's gone country look at them boots
He's gone country back to his roots
He's gone country a new kind of suit
He's gone country here he comes
He commutes to L.A. but he's got a house in the valley
But the bills are pilin' up and the pop scene just ain't on the rally
He says honey
I'm a serious composer
Schooled in voice and composition
But with the crime and the smog these days this ain't no place for children
Lord it sounds so easy it shouldn't take long be back in the money in no time at all
He's gone country look at them boots
He's gone country back to his roots
He's gone country a new kind of suit
He's gone country here he comes
Yeah he's gone country a new kind of walk
He's gone country a new kind of talk
He's gone country look at them boots
He's gone country oh back to his roots
He's gone country
He's gone country
Everybody's gone country
Yeah we've gone country
The whole world's gone country
