Country Lyrics

Have you ever picked guitar on your front porch
in the morning as the sun was risin'?
Or followed your dog down to the river
and ran into an ole' baptizin'?
Do you think to pull off on the side of the road
when that big black hearse is passing?
Have you ever helped someone in need
without them even asking? We do that in the country,
Let me tell you 'bout country.


Country can be in the middle of a city
Country can be on a farm,
Country ain't even a place on map,
it's a place in your heart.

Have you ever hitched a ride to Music City
just to see an Opry show?
Would you drive across the country
to listen to some country?

Country can be in the middle of a city
Country can be on a farm,
Country ain't even a place on the map,
it's a place in your heart.


Have you ever been there at the courthouse square
for the parade on the 'Fourth of July'?
with a tear on your face and a lump in your throat
as you watch ole' glory go by,
Or sat thru a service where they played tabs
for a soldier who never came home?
Or looked in the sad brown eyes of his momma
as she touched his name on that stone?
He fought for his country
and died for his country
I love my country.

Let me tell you 'bout. country.

Billy Dukes of Taste of Country reviewed the single positively, saying that "Mo isn't making a statement, and he's not the sign of some traditional country revolution in 2015. But he's a reminder of how good a simple country song sung by a man who believes in God and George Strait can feel." Johnny Nevin of Huffington Post also reviewed Pitney's music favorably, saying that "Mo Pitney knows a couple of really important things about being Country, real Country. One of them is that he knows who he is, and that's always going to be important, because it's the only way anyone can keep becoming the person they really want to be. Just as important though, it seems like Mo Pitney never forgets about everybody else, and how important they are too." It was the third most-added country song its first week at radio.
