[Verse 1]
I don't like to go down to flats, 'cause I can't park on a hill
Instead getting a rolling start, I have to pay the bill
I guess I need that city life, it sure has lots of style
But pretty soon it wears me out and I have to think to smile

[Chorus]
I'm thankful for my country home, it gives me peace of mind
Somewhere I can walk alone and leave myself behind
I'm thankful for my country home, it gives me peace of mind
Somewhere I can walk alone and leave myself behind

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 2]
It's only someonе else's potatoes if you'rе pickin' someone else's patch
And if you go down there anyway, it very seldom lasts
I found that out once long ago, it sure got me confused
And I still don't know which way to go to lose those old spud blues

[Chorus]
I'm thankful for my country home, it gives me peace of mind
Somewhere I can walk alone and leave myself behind
I'm thankful for my country home, it gives me peace of mind
Somewhere I can walk alone and leave myself behind
[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
I'm thankful for my country home, it gives me peace of mind
Somewhere I can walk alone and leave myself behind
I'm thankful for my country home, it gives me peace of mind
Somewhere I can walk alone and leave myself behind
