August 98 Winning Country Lyrics and Review

I've been to the city 
With all its lights and crowd 
You know that its a pity 
To have to be that loud 

 Chorus: 

 Give me sky, birds and rain 
 The smell of the earth 
 It's here I will remain 
 Every bit of it is worth 

 An eternity 
: 

I've been so far from home 
Tying to be found 
I've never felt so all alone 
Every time I turn around 

Chorus: 

Well, I got myself so lost 
I forgot the simple pleasures 
Maybe that's what it costs 
You need bad to make the measure 

Chorus: 

I ain't gonna stay here 
I'm gonna leave it all to them 
I'm too much and too near 
My wits are at the end 

I need my open space 
They can stay there where they are 
There ain't no other place 
For me, this is as far 

As eternity

This one sounds like that adventure we all sooner or later take. You know, pick up the challenge and go to the big city. It's an easy story to listen to. I get this sort of twang, when I hear the words. A high sliding steal guitar could make this a great sounding song. Some good harmonies on the chorus would go a real long way too. Watch out you "good old boys", somebody's got a story to tell and a song to sing. 

Nice one G. O. West and please send us some more.
